SAIF & CIS Servicing Group

CIS has partnered with SAIF to provide workers’ compensation coverage to CIS members starting July 1, 2021.

The agreement includes an overarching servicing group, of which CIS staff provides safety and health and return-to-work (RTW) services. SAIF has a new discount (OGSERP) group within the servicing group for cities and counties that meet the underwriting eligibility criteria.

Members will receive the best of both worlds, being insured by SAIF and receiving safety and RTW services from CIS’ public entity experts.

By joining the CIS Servicing Group, members get the best coverage and service at the best price.
