Part B - Termination
If Part B on the other side of this form is checked, read the following instructions carefully.
31-Day Extension of Coverage
Your enrollment terminates on the date shown in Part A, item 11, on the
front of this form. Coverage under your enrollment continues for 31 days
from the date shown. If you, or any covered member of your family, are a
patient in a hospital on the 31st day of this extension, benefits of the plan
may continue for the rest of that confinement, but not beyond 60 more days.
Conversion to Non-group Contract
You may convert your enrollment to a non-group contract, without evidence
of good health. The non-group contract to which you may convert is one
regularly offered by your plan. It may differ from your group plan in
benefits or cost, or both, and you will have to pay the entire cost of the
non-group contract directly to the plan. The non-group contract is effective
on the day after your 31-day extension of coverage ends.
If you are interested in converting to a non-group contract, write for
information to the nearest office of the plan in which you have been enrolled
(see the plan's brochure or ask the Office of Personnel Management for the
address of the plan's nearest office). The plan will promptly send you an
application form and details concerning benefits and rates of the non-group
contract to which you may convert.
Time Limit on Conversion
Normally, to be eligible for conversion, you must send your written request
for information to your plan within 31 days after the date shown in Part H.
However, if the date shown in Part H is more than 60 days after the date your
enrollment terminates (Part A, item 11), you must forward your written
request to your plan within 91 days after the date shown in Part A, item 11.
If you are prevented by causes beyond your control from submitting a
timely request for information about conversion to a non-group contract,
you should write to your plan as soon as possible asking approval of a
belated conversion opportunity.
Explain fully the circumstances that prevented earlier action and attach a
copy of this form or other proof of loss of group coverage.
A plan may consider requests filed within 6 months after group eligibility
ends. If your plan needs assistance in processing your request, it should
contact OPM.
Help in Obtaining Insurance through the Marketplace
In lieu of offering a non-FEHB plan for conversion purposes, your plan will
offer assistance to you in obtaining health benefits coverage inside or
outside the Affordable Care Act's Health Insurance Marketplace. For
assistance in finding coverage, please contact your plan directly.
Entry on Active Military Duty
If you elected to terminate your enrollment because you are entering military
service, you may convert to a non-group contract even though your family
members are entitled to care under the Uniformed Services Health Benefits
Program. Your enrollment will be reinstated on the day you are separated
from military service. You must notify your retirement system of this event
by furnishing a copy of your separation papers.
If Part C, D, E, or F on the other side of this form is checked, read carefully whichever of the following instructions applies.
Part C - Transfer of Enrollment
Retirement - Your enrollment continues automatically during retirement
because you met certain eligibility requirements.
Death - If the deceased employee or annuitant was enrolled for self and
family at the time of death, and if at least one of the covered family
members is entitled to survivor annuity (or the surviving spouse is eligible
for FERS Basic Employee Death benefit), eligible family members who
were covered by the enrollment of the deceased may continue the coverage.
The health benefits plan identification number generally is the deceased's
social security number.
Part D - Reinstatement
This form is used to reinstate your health benefits enrollment.
The enrollment may have been terminated because your annuity was
terminated, because you entered military service and elected to terminate
your enrollment, or because of an error or misunderstanding.
Part E - Change in Name of Enrollee
At the time a Federal retirement system survivor annuity is approved, this
form is used to show that the retirement system has continued the health
benefits enrollment in the survivor's name. If an eligible spouse survives,
the enrollment will be changed to his/her name. Otherwise, the enrollment
will be continued in the name of the youngest child.
Part F - Change in Enrollment - Survivor Annuitant
The enrollment will remain in the family option unless there is only one
eligible family member. In that event, the enrollment will be changed to the
self-only option. The family plan covers all eligible family members. Any
time the person who is paying for the family enrollment elects to change to
self-only, all other eligible family members will be given an opportunity to
enroll in an FEHB plan.
Keep This Form For Your Records.
