The SCC is also charged with administering Virginia’s health insurance marketplace. The SCC’s structure is unique. No other state has a single agency with such a broad array of regulatory responsibility.

The SCC offers our employees rewarding, impactful work; flexible telework options and work-life balance; and professional development opportunities.

In addition, the SCC prohibits romantic or intimate relationships among managers and employees in the same management hierarchy.
