Methods Of Facilitating Emergency Assistance
In system and methods for loss mitigation, accident data associated with a vehicle accident involving a driver may be collected. The accident data may be analyzed, and a likely severity of the vehicle accident may be determined based upon the analysis of the accident data. A communication related to emergency assistance or an emergency assistance recommendation may be generated based upon the determined likely severity of the vehicle accident, and transmitted, via wireless communication, from one or more remote servers to a mobile device associated with the driver. A wireless communication from the driver indicating approval or modification of the emergency assistance or emergency assistance recommendation may be received. A third party may be notified, via a communication sent from the remote server(s), of requested emergency assistance as approved or modified by the driver. An estimated insurance claim may also be generated based upon vehicle accident likely severity.

- 1. A computer-implemented method of loss mitigation, the method comprising:
collecting, by one or more remote servers associated with an insurance provider, accident data associated with a vehicle accident involving a driver, the accident data including vehicle telematics data, and the driver being associated with an insurance policy issued by the insurance provider; analyzing, by the one or more remote servers, the accident data; determining, by the one or more remote servers and based upon the analysis of the accident data, a likely severity of the vehicle accident; generating, by the one or more remote servers and based upon the determined likely severity of the vehicle accident, a communication related to emergency assistance or an emergency assistance recommendation; transmitting, via wireless communication, the communication related to the emergency assistance or emergency assistance recommendation from the one or more remote servers to a mobile device associated with the driver; receiving, at the one or more remote servers, a wireless communication from the driver indicating approval or modification of the emergency assistance or emergency assistance recommendation; and notifying, via a communication sent from the one or more remote servers, a third party of requested emergency assistance in accordance with the emergency assistance or emergency assistance recommendation as approved or modified by the driver.
- 6. A computer-implemented method of loss mitigation, the method comprising:
collecting, by one or more remote servers associated with an insurance provider, accident data associated with a vehicle accident involving a driver, the accident data including vehicle telematics data, and the driver being associated with an insurance policy issued by the insurance provider; analyzing, by the one or more remote servers, the accident data; determining, by the one or more remote servers and based upon the analysis of the accident data, a likely severity of the vehicle accident; generating, by the one or more remote servers and based upon the determined likely severity of the vehicle accident, a communication related to emergency assistance or an emergency assistance recommendation; transmitting the communication related to the emergency assistance or emergency assistance recommendation from the one or more remote servers to a third party to facilitate a prompt and appropriate emergency responder response to the vehicle accident; notifying the driver, via a communication sent from the one or more remote servers, that emergency assistance from the third party has been requested; and receiving from the driver, at the one or more remote servers, a wireless communication indicating one or both of (i) a cancellation of the emergency assistance from the third party, and (ii) that the emergency assistance from the third party is not necessary.
- 11. A system for facilitating loss mitigation, the system comprising:
one or more processors; and one or more memories storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to
collect accident data associated with a vehicle accident involving a driver, the accident data including vehicle telematics data, and the driver being associated with an insurance policy issued by the insurance provider,
analyze the accident data,
determine, based upon the analysis of the accident data, a likely severity of the vehicle accident,
generate, based upon the determined likely severity of the vehicle accident, a communication related to emergency assistance or an emergency assistance recommendation,
cause the communication related to the emergency assistance or emergency assistance recommendation to be transmitted, via wireless communication, to a mobile device associated with the driver,
receive a wireless communication from the driver indicating approval or modification of the emergency assistance or emergency assistance recommendation, and
cause a third party to be notified of requested emergency assistance in accordance with the emergency assistance or emergency assistance recommendation as approved or modified by the driver.
