Online Enrollment Management Tool

Online Enrollment from CIEB provides access to powerful searching and reporting capabilities. The Advanced Search function allows users to search by coverage or member information. Users can design custom membership reports, which are easily downloaded to spreadsheets. Online Enrollment allows employers to review membership prior to bill issuance, confirm enrollment changes occurred as expected, and manage eligibility processes and reporting. The Online Enrollment option does not require the client to modify data, but to simply submit employee information either through manual enrollment or through an electronic file or data source, from which CIEB will then upload into the system. The Online Enrollment Tool is available for all CIEB clients. Contact a CIEB sales representative for more information about the Online Enrollment option.
