Federal Employee Retirement Benefits


  • It will almost always be to your advantage to keep your current coverage without any changes. However, if you have limited income and resources, you may qualify for extra help from Medicare.
  • If you decide to make changes to your current coverage, you should first contact your FEHBP insurer. You can contact them by calling 1-888-767-6738.
  • If you lose your FEHBP coverage and join a Medicare drug plan, in most cases, you won’t have to pay a penalty, as long as you join within 63 days of losing your coverage.
