Swiss insurers deploy dent-scanning drive-ins after hailstorm

The move signals a shift toward automated claims processing, though the extent of total losses and the storm's overall economic impact remain unclear. This development matters as it highlights the growing use of technology in disaster response and the financial implications for insurers and policyholders.
