The Office of Risk Management serves as the administrator of the self-funded insurance pools for group health and life insurance, workers' compensation and general liability. In addition, the office maintains financial oversight of the Safety & Environmental division, while operations are managed by the Department of Administrative Services. The office also manages insurance policies for the County covering excess liability claims and property damage to buildings and equipment.

This office does not provide general advice to members of the public who have questions concerning their own insurance problems. Those questions should be directed to the State of Nevada Division of Insurance at (702) 486-4009.
