RANCHO CORDOVA, CA (March 1, 2022) — Health Net Federal Services, LLC, (HNFS), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Centene Corporation (NYSE:CNC), announced today that its call center has been certified as a Center of Excellence by BenchmarkPortal for the tenth consecutive year. The Center of Excellence recognition is one of the most prestigious awards in the customer service and support industry.

BenchmarkPortal awards the “Center of Excellence” designation to customer service contact centers that rank in the top 10% of the contact centers surveyed. They are judged against a balanced scorecard of metrics for efficiency and effectiveness. To earn this award, contact centers must demonstrate superior performance on both cost-related metrics and quality-related metrics compared with their industry peers.

“Maintaining high levels of excellence in the center over a period of years is a wonderful testimony to the contact center management team, the frontline agents, and the senior managers who support and encourage this excellence,” said Bruce Belfiore, CEO, BenchmarkPortal. “Health Net Federal Services’ contact center professionals have shown exceptional dedication and results, for which I commend them. A contact center that seeks and achieves the Center of Excellence Certification from BenchmarkPortal demonstrates a noteworthy commitment to service excellence. The obvious beneficiaries of this commitment are the center’s customers, employees, and shareholders.”

Call centers operated by HNFS serve TRICARE beneficiaries in the West Region, and the audit was conducted as part of the certification process.
