The OEBAC Team is still experiencing a large volume of calls.
The top phone requests by far at this point are from members asking about the status of a claim. The OEBAC Team can help with this, but if you want to take a short cut, just look to the OEBAC Mobile App and OEBAC Online. See below for steps.
NOTE: Due to the amount of paper claims transferred from Global Benefits, OEBAC is dealing with a backlog. The team is working hard to resolve, but any help from members and any reduction in the amount of calls would be a great help.
Try these easy steps to check the status of a claim on your own:
