Auto-Enrollment

You should have received a letter from USPS prior to Open Season that provides information regarding the PSHB plan you’ll automatically be enrolled in for 2025, based on your current FEHB enrollment. If you are currently enrolled in a FEHB plan not participating in PSHB for 2025, you will be automatically enrolled in the PSHB nationwide plan option called Blue Cross Blue Shield Service Benefit Plan FEP Blue Focus beginning January 1, 2025.

You can make changes to your plan enrollment during the PSHB Open Season. Enrollees are encouraged to review all available plans to choose a plan that best fits their needs. If you don’t make any changes, your PSHB coverage for 2025 will be with the plan in which you were automatically enrolled.
