“This portion of the training provides an overview of the policies that govern the Benefits Branch. Employees must learn and understand these policies, and accurately apply them when performing day-to-day work responsibilities.
The most current SOPs can be found on the DCBS public drive: \\eas.ds.ky.gov\dfs\OR0372\Public\dcbs\Guardianship\Benefits and Fiduciary SOP’s\Benefits Management Branch.
Standard operating procedures tend to be a long read, so we’ve included a brain break halfway through. It’s important to remember these documents ensure the laws are implemented fairly and consistently across the Commonwealth.
Before we get started, let’s watch a short video on standard operating procedures and why they are essential for state agencies.”
