My name is Rebecca McCamley. I was born and raised in Philipsburg, where I still live today. I have two dogs: a 14-year-old Yorkie (Emmy) and a rescued 6-month-old mixed lab/boxer (Bowie).
I’m a graduate of Indiana University of Pennsylvania and have been with Geisinger almost nine years. In 2020, after seven years on the sales operations team, I transitioned into my current role as the new business account executive associate with one to nine eligible employees. I’m proud that this organization plays a big part within the local communities and gives back whenever and however they can. I’m passionate about my work and am committed to providing the best experience for my prospects, members, brokers and colleagues.
I have two boys: a 6-year-old in kindergarten and a 4-year-old in preschool. In my free time, I enjoy being outdoors hiking, fishing and going to the beach. And I’m a big Marvel fan.
Rebecca handles groups with one to nine eligible employees. Contact Rebecca:

I’m Stephen Lewis and I live in Pringle, Pa. — where chips aren’t included in homeowner taxes, unfortunately.
I’ve been with Geisinger for eight glorious years, and I enjoy helping consumers work through (often confusing and overwhelming) health insurance information.
I have five children between the ages of 4 and 14, as well as one black rex bunny named Shadow.
In my free time, I love learning more and teaching my children about my savior Jesus Christ, having family dinners, tending to the vegetable garden, fishing at the pond and taking my kids to practice and games for whichever sport season it is.

My name is Charles P. Savas and I live in South Abington Township. I’m a graduate of Lackawanna Junior College and have been working for Geisinger Health Plan for six years.
I enjoy making the sales process as smooth and thorough as possible, paying close attention to the many details involved.
In my free time, I enjoy working out, watching football (especially college football) and listening to music. I also enjoy talking about music and occasionally like to be challenged with music trivia questions.
