Experienced Short/Longterm Disability Specialist with strong customer service skills.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated Short/Longterm Disability Specialist with over four years of experience managing disability claims. My role involves communicating with claimants, employers, and medical professionals to ensure accurate eligibility determinations and benefit authorizations. I pride myself on providing superior customer service and managing complex claims independently, ensuring a seamless transition from short-term to long-term disability.
Previously, I served as a Leave Specialist, where I guided associates through the Leave of Absence process and administered FMLA policies. My background also includes extensive experience in retail management, where I honed my customer service and team coordination skills. I am committed to maintaining compliance with federal regulations and providing support to management with special projects.
