If you want to change your health benefits or enroll in a new plan, you must act now.

The annual open season benefits enrollment period ends Monday, Dec. 12, at 11:59 p.m. EST. This will be most employees’ last chance this year to consider new options.

“If you haven’t engaged in this year’s open season, the good news is you still have time,” said Chief Human Resources Officer Jeff Williamson. “The Postal Service encourages all employees to take time to evaluate their coverage needs and make any necessary changes before the Dec. 12 deadline.”

Employees can choose from a variety of health, vision and dental coverage options through the following programs and plans:

  • Federal Employees Health Benefits Program (FEHB)
  • USPS Health Benefits Plan (USPSHB) for non-career employees only
  • Federal Employees Dental and Vision Insurance Program (FEDVIP)
  • Flexible spending accounts (FSAs)
