1. Functions to be performed by carriers

As provided by law, RRB selects and enters into contracts with Part B carrier(s) in the same manner as CMS. RRB has selected Travelers Insurance as its nationwide representative to process medical insurance claims involving enrollees who are railroad retirement beneficiaries.

NOTE: The claim of any qualified RR beneficiary is processed by the Travelers Insurance Company even though the qualified RR beneficiary is also entitled to RSDI benefits.
