Review your benefits each year to make sure they still fit your needs

When healthcare needs change, benefits should, too. The open season benefits enrollment period is an ideal time for employees to take a fresh look at coverage.

Each year, plans can change. Premiums, deductibles, provider networks and covered services may be updated, which could affect out-of-pocket costs. At the same time, personal situations may change. A new prescription, a growing family or a new diagnosis can affect which plan is the best fit.

Reviewing benefits annually helps ensure employees are getting the coverage they need without paying more than necessary.

The MyHR Open Season Enrollment page details all the benefit programs available, including the Postal Service Health Benefit Program for career employees, the USPS Health Benefits Plan for precareer employees, vision and dental insurance, health savings accounts and flexible spending accounts

The page also provides direct access to PostalEASE, the Postal Service Health Benefits System and the Consumers’ Checkbook tool for comparing healthcare options.

This year’s open season runs from Nov. 9 through Dec. 14.

Additional coverage can be found on Link’s Open Season 2026 page.
