WebCOBRA.com: Summer 2008 Release
The testing of the Summer 2008 release of WebCOBRA is almost complete, and over the next few weeks, we are going to highlight some of the new features that will be added to the system.
One of the major features that will be added to the WebCOBRA.com system is Online Enrollment. With this feature, administrators will have the ability to enable QBs to have the option to log into the system and accept their coverage with a full electronic payment.
A major benefit of using Online Enrollment is that it will significantly cut down on the paperwork you receive because, by having the QB login and accept their coverage, it will be the same as if the Administrator had actually received the enrollment form. Additionally, the system Administrator will be able to grant or deny QBs the ability to participate in Online Enrollment.
After hearing about this feature, are you worried the QB will be able to change the coverage options offered to them? Don’t worry; QBs will only be able to select the options that the Administrator sets for them. If the QB has questions regarding their coverage, or wants to change tiers or amounts, the QB will be instructed to contact the Administrator. Once this “offline” conversation occurs, the Administrator can then make the benefit changes for the QB, such as dropping a dental plan, changing from QB and Family to QB and Children, etc. Then, after the Administrator makes the necessary changes, the QB can login and make their first payment.
This isn’t all we’re adding to WebCOBRA in the Summer 2008 release. Check back next week, and we’ll tell you about another important feature!
