Health Benefits for Federal Employees
Blue Cross and Blue Shield offers great healthcare options for federal employees and their families. Here you’ll find information on the available plans and their benefits.
New to Federal Employment?
The Blue Cross and Blue Shield Service Benefit Plan is the number one choice of federal employees and retirees in the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program. For 60 years, we’ve been covering federal employees and retirees. If you are an actively working federal employee and want to become a member of the Blue Cross and Blue Shield Service Benefit Plan, there are two ways you can enroll:
- Using your agency’s preferred method
- By contacting your agency’s personnel office
Approaching Retirement?
Together, the Service Benefit Plan and Medicare can protect you from the high cost of medical care.
Medicare works best with our coverage when Medicare Part A and Part B are your primary coverage. That means Medicare pays for your service first, and then we pay our portion.
Usually if you’re retired, Medicare is primary. If you’re still actively working, we’re your primary coverage.
