VDE- Voluntary Disenrollment(CVS Caremark, New Jersey, US)

Technical Lead and Development (Oct 2017 to till date)

Business Problem: Voluntary disenrollment (VDE) requests from members are processed manually, with multiple touch points. Voluntary disenrollment’s accounted 86% of total SSIC disenrollment volume and required 100% manual review.

Manual processing exposes us to inconsistency and inaccuracy in decision making and request processing. In some cases, incorrect correspondences are triggered to members, members are not disenrolled timely, and are not disenrolled with correct disenrollment date. Current configuration also requires us to contact the members multiple times to obtain all the required information to process the disenrollment requests. The proposed state shall automate and integrate the processing/handling of voluntary disenrollment and cancellation requests from members and to reduce labor hours by at least 50%, increase compliance and reduce internal review labor and cost, Improve member experience and Enable Tier 1 users to process greater percentage of volume.
