2022 FEHBP Open Season: Monday, November 14- Monday, December 12, 2022

The 2022 Federal Health Benefits Plan Open Season begins on Monday, November 14, 2022 and runs through Monday, December 12, 2022. As Open Season approaches, here are a few things to keep in mind as you think about benefits for 2023. 

Remember: the Rural Carrier Benefit Plan (RCBP) is only available to members of the NRLCA.

Even if you are not in the RCBP, we encourage all carriers to compare the premiums and benefits of your health plan.

 

2023 Bi-Weekly Premiums
(Active Employees):
High Option Self $130.98
Self Plus One $253.14
Self & Family $243.23

2023 Monthly Premiums
(Retirees & Annuitants):
Self $283.79
Self Plus One $548.47
Family $527.00

*If you are in Self Plus One and your premium would be less in Family coverage, make the change! This is allowable for every plan in the FEHB program, make the switch to pay less.
