FEHB Coverage

I have a member whose is confused as to what their current FEHB enrollment is.  There is not a way to find out on the OPM Servicesonline site.  The member and his wife are very confused about this issue.  Telling them to call the 888-768-6738 number is frustrating, as it is constantly busy.  Is there any way that as Service Officer, I can find out from OPM what their enrollment code is to settle their nerves?

the irs instructions for form 1040 provides information about taking the $250 tax credit. Filers must attach a schedule M - 'Making Work Pay and Government Retiree Credits'.

Evidently the IRS did not include this information in the their Publication 721 this year.

There is an error in the 2010 version of the Medicare and You publication on page 100. It talks about Federal Long Term Care Insurance and refers the reader to OPM's Retirement Information number 1-888-767-6738. The correct contact is Federal Long Term Care Partners at 1-800-582-3337.
