Federal Employee Health Benefits plans

2

Q. I am a CSRS annuitant who retired with a Federal Employee Health Benefits (FEHB) family plan in 2010. In 2016, my spouse, who is a federal employee, enrolled in the FEHB and I suspended my FEHB enrollment because she picked up our family plan including myself. What is my procedure to re-enroll, as an annuitant, in the FEHB? When should I do this?

A. You can switch the enrollment from her to you during the upcoming FEHB open season.

  1. I am married and my spouse was on my FEHB plan, she dropped it and went on her employee health care plan years ago. I am now retired from the federal government, can I put her on my FEHB during open season? Thank You.
