The MPL organization is improving policy and claims efficiencies, offering enhanced service to customers and minimizing maintenance costs

HOLON, Israel, April 1, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Sapiens International Corporation, (NASDAQ: SPNS) (TASE: SPNS), a leading global provider of software solutions for the insurance industry, announced today that Preferred Physicians Medical Risk Retention Group (PPM), a company providing anesthesia-focused medical professional liability (MPL) to its customers, went live with two offerings: Sapiens CoreSuite for Property & Casualty and Sapiens IntelligencePro were both deployed over the cloud.

Sapiens CoreSuite for Property & Casualty is comprised of three fully integrated, core components that are modular for policy, billing and claims. Sapiens IntelligencePro is a comprehensive business intelligence solution with over 100 pre-configured reports, dashboards, scorecards, ad hoc reporting and hundreds of analytics.

PPM selected Sapiens CoreSuite as part of their technology and business transformation strategy that will enable them to support their growth strategy and next-generation customers. Sapiens CoreSuite was chosen for its ability to support PPM's policy, quote and claims needs, as well as workflow and increased process automation and efficiency, reporting and business intelligence requirements. The suite's extensive functionality and its flexibility to support self-sufficiently configuration for PPM's complex coverage requirements were also key factors during the selection process.

"We are thrilled to have reached go-live with Sapiens," said Deanna Olson, CFO of PPM. "Our business needs are complex and the flexibility of Sapiens CoreSuite for P&C with its integration to their InteligencePro, along with the partnership our teams built, is what made this implementation a success. Our goal from this transformation program was to retire our legacy system. Not only was that accomplished, but we ushered in a new era of modern and digital IT systems that will help maintain and improve our competitive position."

The Sapiens CoreSuite for Property & Casualty is enabling PPM to:

• Configure new processes and improve policy and claims efficiencies
• Drive innovative ideas and excellent service to customers
• Minimize short- and long-term maintenance costs over the life of the system

"We congratulate PPM on their successful implementation," said Roni Al-Dor, Sapiens president and CEO. "We could have not achieved this milestone within such a tight schedule without the close collaboration and partnership that was established between our teams. We see this as the beginning of a long partnership and we look forward to helping ensure PPM's continued success."
