"...As part of the new Postal Service Health Benefits (PSHB) Program, you may be eligible to participate in the PSHB Special Enrollment Period (SEP) for Medicare Part B. The PSHB SEP applies to certain Postal Service annuitants and family members who were entitled to Medicare Part A, but not enrolled in Medicare Part B as of Jan 1, 2024.
During the PSHB SEP, eligible annuitants and family members may enroll in Medicare Part B without paying a late enrollment penalty. The one-time PSHB SEP is from April 1, 2024, to Sept. 30, 2024. Individuals eligible for the PSHB SEP will receive notification by U.S. Mail™ in March 2024.
All required information must be returned in the envelope provided and postmarked by Sept. 30, 2024.
...You can get additional information on the PSHB Program and how it works with Medicare by reviewing the resources available on the PSHB page, viewing the PSHB-Medicare 5 Part video series, or by attending a PSHB Seminar. Additional resources include the Consumers Checkbook Guide and your local State Health Insurance Program office. If you have misplaced the notification letter mailed to you or believe that you are eligible to participate in the PSHB and did not receive notification letter, please contact the PSHB Navigator Help Line’s toll-free number at 833-712-PSHB (7742), or email retirementbenefits@usps.gov."
