“Earning the J.D. Power auto claims certification for the seventh year in a row demonstrates NJM’s dedication to excellence in serving our policyholders,” said Mitch Livingston, NJM President & CEO. “Our commitment to exceptional service and support remains at the heart of everything we do.”
Eligibility for the J.D. Power Auto Claims Certification Program℠ involves a rigorous independent audit of the claims process, including a survey of recent auto insurance claimants and an evaluation of an insurer’s performance across key operational best practices throughout impactful areas of the claims process. The operational assessment and audit resulted in NJM satisfying 66 out of 67 evaluation metrics — a 99% success rate, which is well above the minimum requirement of 80% for the J.D. Power Program.
