| Abstract: | The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) is issuing final regulations that are consistent with existing administrative procedures requiring employing offices to provide information about enrollees in the Federal Employees Health Benefits (FEHB) Program to the carriers of the FEHB plans in which they are enrolled. Carriers are also required to use the information provided by employing offices to reconcile their enrollment records. These regulations will regularize the conditions that would allow carriers to disenroll individuals when their employing office of record does not show them as enrolled in the carrier's plan and the carrier is otherwise unable to verify the enrollment. The purpose of these regulations is to facilitate reconciliation of carrier and employing office enrollment records, especially in cases where the carrier has not previously received a notice showing an enrollment no longer is valid. |
