Auto repair costs are going up in part because of changes in parts and new, more complex vehicles, an insurance information management firm said.

San Diego-based Mitchell International–a provider of information, workflow and performance management solutions for the automotive insurance claims industry–said its findings on repairs and other trends will be part of the data it presents at an upcoming conference.

Jamison Day, Mitchell senior director of information services, and Thomas McCarthy, executive vice president and founder of Mitchell Medical, are due to appear March 11 at the Society of Insurance Research Product/Claim Summit in San Antonio, Texas, for a talk on leveraging claims data, the company said.
