OPM outlines plan to migrate 1.7M FEHB enrollees into postal-only insurance marketplace

The Office of Personnel Management is outlining its plan to migrate nearly 2 million individuals covered under the Federal Employee Health Benefits (FEHB) Program to a new postal-only health insurance marketplace.

OPM is creating the Postal Service Health Benefits Program as required under the Postal Service Reform Act signed into law a year ago.

The agency anticipates a much busier Open Season next year in 2024 than in prior years, because 1.7 million postal employees, annuitants and eligible family members will have to switch to the new postal-only insurance marketplace.
