OPM Details 2026 Coverage Changes, Plan Dropouts for FEHB/PSHB

OPM has spelled out more details of health insurance coverage changes and plan availability for the 2026 plan year, with several increases in the former but decreases in the latter.

Affected enrollees will have to either elect a new plan in the open season November 10-December 8 or accept enrollment in a default plan—the GEHA Benefit Plan-High Option in the FEHB, and the Blue Cross and Blue Shield Service Benefit Plan – FEP Blue Focus in the PSHB.
