A "Green" TPA

Blue Leaf Claims, Inc. strives to be the first truly "green" company in our industry. We believe this aspect of our approach to business will be appealing to an increasing percentage of buyers and decision-makers around the country, who seek to demonstrate an environmental consciousness to their stakeholders.
+	Employees work from home, saving on gasoline consumption and reducing auto emissions.
+	The majority of our employees do not have printers for business use as all paper mail and correspondence is delivered to a central administrative office and imaged into our claim system. All paper is then shredded and sent to a local paper recycling facility.
+	All outgoing mail is printed and mailed from the same central administrative office.
+	Recorded statements are taken on-line, digitally captured and stored in a web-based program, eliminating the need to create and store tape recordings.
+	Service providers and partners are encouraged to either e-mail all documents to us or send them directly to our company’s claims management system.
+	Vendors used by the company will be evaluated based in part on their own environmental-friendly practices and willingness to embrace our business approach.

The Benefits of Blue Leaf Claims’ Virtual Environment
+	Paper Savings - Most TPAs still keep some or most of their work in paper files. These files have to be accessible while they’re open and stored for up to 7 years or more after they’re closed. If you can recreate scanned documents or management reports any time you want, why keep all the paper available all the time?
+	Environmental Impact - Imagine 10,000 employees in your area suddenly being able to work from home. Gas consumption goes down and air quality goes up. Traffic is lessened and there are 10,000 more parking spaces available. Communication and documentation take place on-line without the need for reams of paper. Whatever paper is created is scanned into the system, shredded and recycled. The list goes on.
+	Quality of Life - Our employees can work the same amount of hours in the day, but spend more time with their families. They can work from home when they or a family member are sick and need to have someone close by. Instead of taking unpaid Family Medical Leave time, new mothers and fathers can work those weeks from home and stay on salary. Experienced and motivated people with disabilities that make it difficult or impossible for them to work in an office environment can get back into and stay in the work environment.
+	Quality People - Having the ability to allow employees to work from home offers Blue Leaf Claims’ customers a significantly larger pool of qualified employees to draw from. Instead of being limited to people who live within driving distance of a particular claim office, we are able to find qualified claims people further away in lower cost locales.
