The Office of Personnel Management in the June 10 Federal Register issued final regulations on changes in health benefits enrollment for annuitants or survivor annuitants when a carrier terminates participation in the Federal Employees Health Benefits program. The regs give OPM the authority to enroll annuitants in whichever option of the Blue Cross Blue Shield (BC/BS) Service Benefit Plan it determines will most closely approximate the terminated plan. Under prior policy, an annuitant who does not elect to change health plans was deemed to have enrolled in the standard option, or if the plan he or she was enrolled in had two options, to have enrolled in the same option previously enrolled in.
