Thank you for calling [Carrier]. This is [Your Name] and I'm here to help. Before we start, I need to let you know this call may be recorded for quality and training. Is that alright with you?

Okay. Can you tell me what happened, in your own words? I'll take notes and ask follow-up questions once you finish.
Note
Do not interrupt for the first 60 seconds. Let them tell the story.
Agent
Thank you. I have a few short questions so I can open your claim. Can you share the date, time, and location of the incident, and the names of anyone else involved?
Agent
Here's what happens next. I'm assigning claim number [X]. An adjuster will reach out within one business day. Is the number you're calling from the best way to reach you?
