NALC Headquarters has been made aware of some of our members receiving invoices from USPS regarding non-payment of health benefit premiums. These should not be ignored, and each instance should be individually investigated and grieved if the invoice is in error.
The Postal Service has informed us that approximately 3 percent of Postal Service Health Benefits (PSHB) Program enrollees did not have premiums withheld for one or more pay periods. If you find the indebtedness is legitimate, follow the instructions in the letter to either pay the amount in full or pay through salary offset.
