The FEHB Program is Going Green

You can quickly and easily view your health plan's brochure online, anytime by visiting the FEHB website, or visit your health plan's website. During the next several months, your FEHB health plan will contact you to offer you the option of obtaining your benefit brochure online or requesting a paper copy of the benefit brochure. If you want your health plan to mail a paper copy of your brochure to you for the next Open Season (November 14 through December 12, 2016), follow the instructions your health plan provides you. (For those of you who change plans this Open Season, your new health plan will mail you a paper copy of its brochure.)

Paper copies of health plan brochures will not be automatically mailed to Federal Employees Health

Please Note: OPM is no longer producing the Guide to Federal Benefits (Guide) beginning with the 2016 benefit year. This will include both the printed and online versions of the Guide. We have determined that it is no longer cost effective to produce the Guide and due to the implementation of the Going Green Initiative in 2010, an increasing number of agencies are turning toward online resources for information about the federal benefits programs instead of ordering printed copies of the Guide. More Info

You will continue to receive the Open Season package your plan normally mails to you, and this package will include an explanation of benefit changes for the next year and your new premium rate, but will exclude the health plan brochure.
