Remote-ready underwriting and compliance leader delivering accurate Medicare support and documentation-driven customer service.
What I'm looking for
I’m a remote-ready customer operations and compliance leader with deep experience in Medicare-focused customer service, underwriting support, and enterprise compliance programs. I’m known for clear communication, accurate documentation, de-escalation, and process discipline in high-volume environments.
In my current role as an Underwriting Account Representative at Cigna (Remote), I guide agents on pre-qualification for Medicare Supplement and ancillary products, explain underwriting decisions clearly, and document phone conversations and case outcomes for auditability. I apply product-specific underwriting criteria consistently and fairly while building strong relationships with business partners to keep work moving efficiently.
Before this, I supported Medicare members with coverage questions and claims/payment determinations as a Customer Service Advocate (Remote), and handled inbound healthcare-related appointment setting and warm transfers as a Customer Experience Specialist (Remote). Earlier, I served as an Ethics & Compliance Officer with the United States Postal Service, conducting research, producing training reports, assessing compliance risk, and reinforcing policy adherence through monitoring, follow-ups, and virtual meetings—skills I bring into every remote collaboration effort.
