Description

Welcome to the Restoration Domination Podcast Episode 042 With your Host, Rico Garcia Jr. In this episode we are joined by Mathew Allen, Founder of AdjusterTV which is a training platform for aspiring IAs. We discuss the locker room talk on both sides, how to get cases closed faster, the truth about being an IA, and the pay structure plus much more!

Biggest Takeaways:
1. IA's benefit from having larger claims and making sure that they catch everything the first time.  If you can close the case on-site and educate and help them justify your line items, everyone wins. 
2. Case isn't dragged out, the insurance company saves on admin costs, contractor saves time before getting paid and IA can move on to additional cases.
3. Some line items are automatically denied because that is within their guidelines over which they have no control.  If you want to have that line item paid, state a case they can take to their managers or take your case directly to the carrier if that if they're the only one with the power to negotiate.
4. Low pricing averages are more likely due to TPA work and contractors accepting minimums
How everything goes depends on the level of documentation, justification, and true need.
