What is the purpose of SBP elections in the CPPA workflow?

• A. To determine retirement age for the member.
• B. To switch health insurance providers.
• C. To determine beneficiary coverage and associated monthly deductions for eligible members.
• D. To modify annual leave accrual rates.

Answer: (C)

SBP elections define who will receive survivor benefits and how much coverage is in place. In the CPPA workflow, recording an SBP election sets the designated beneficiary and the monthly deduction tied to that coverage. This ensures the correct benefit amount is funded and that the appropriate person will receive the SBP annuity if the member dies. It’s specifically about survivor benefits and the associated ongoing cost, not retirement age, health insurance changes, or annual leave accrual.
