As a Customer Service Representative, you will provide advocate care to assist members with a clear path to care, claims understanding, and resolution, while educating them on online resources.

Position Details
- Schedule: Monday-Friday 11:45am - 8:15pm EST. Please note that schedules are subject to change at any time with advanced notice due to business needs.
- Holiday/PTO Requirements: As a 24-hour call center operation, we treat holidays as normal working business days, unless you have been approved for time off. This means you would work your normal shift if the company-observed holiday falls on your normal workday. No PTO is available during the first 45 days of employment.
- Training Requirements: The first six weeks of employment will be training on Monday-Friday 9:00AM-5:30PM EST.
Key Responsibilities
As a Customer Service Representative, you will:
- Create an emotional connection with our members by understanding and engaging them to the fullest, championing their best health.
- Take accountability to fully understand the member’s needs by building a trusting and caring relationship with them.
- Anticipate customer needs and provide personalized support.
- Perform reviews of member claim history to ensure accurate tracking of benefit maximums and/or coinsurance/deductible.
- Perform financial data maintenance as necessary.

Workspace Requirements
To ensure your success in this role, you must have a quiet and secure workspace in your home. We recommend the following technical requirements for your residential internet service:
- Select an internet service that is either broadband or fiber (e.g., Verizon Fios, Comcast).
- Select a minimum of 25mbps/3mbps. Remember, the higher the speed, the faster your internet.
- A hardwired connection is required (ethernet connection); a wireless connection will introduce the risk of performance degradation.
