The PSHB Program is a new, separate program within the Federal Employees Health Benefits (FEHB) Program, which will provide health insurance to eligible Postal Service employees, Postal Service annuitants, and their eligible family members starting January 1, 2025. Learn more about PSHB.
OPM is working to make the transition to PSHB as simple as possible by automatically enrolling Postal Service members into a PSHB plan based on their current FEHB enrollment. The following table lists the plan options into which individuals will be automatically enrolled. Postal Service enrollees, annuitants, and their family members who are currently enrolled in any FEHB plan not listed below will be automatically enrolled in the PSHB nationwide plan option with the lowest self-only premium that is not a high deductible health plan and does not charge a membership fee.
Postal Service enrollees always have the right to choose their PSHB plan during the Federal Benefits Open Season. This year, Open Season will run from November 11, 2024, through December 9, 2024.
