You'll use the knowledge you learn through training to thoroughly explain available benefit programs, options, eligibility requirements, and application deadlines to participating employers and members. You will need to provide the information in an easy-to-understand format so members can make informed decisions.
You may also be responsible for monitoring and updating changes to health insurance benefits, including changing how a retiree's health insurance premiums are paid, assisting employers with benefit adjustments and adjusting members’ monthly payments as needed. The work you do will ensure that State and Local government employees and retirees have the insurance coverages they need when they need them, and that retirees' monthly payments are made timely and accurately. There are a lot of deadlines and your attention to detail will be key, but you'll have a lot of opportunities to feel accomplished in meeting those requirements.
