About

You can if you volunteer at Senior Services of Snohomish County (SSSC) with the Statewide Health Insurance Benefits Advisors (SHIBA) program.

As a SHIBA volunteer your job is answering questions, providing information, furnishing referrals and generally helping consumers navigate through the world of insurance companies.

After 30 hours of training and mentoring, and 3 hours a month in the office for updates to regualtions and so on, you should be ready to handle the calls yourself.

This could be done from home if you like, though going into the SHIBA office is perfectly fine too.

As a SHIBA volunteer you part of a network of trained volunteers who educate, assist and advocate for comsumers about their rights and options regarding health insurance issues and health care access. You provide information so they can make an informed decision.
