Many military retirees take a position with the federal government as a post-military career choice. As federal civilian employees, they can choose health care options under the Federal Employees Health Benefits (FEHB) Program.

Options include consumer-driven and high-deductible plans, health savings/reimbursable accounts, and fee-for-service plans.

MOAA members with complex FEHB Program issues should seek advice from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), their human resources department, or an organization such as NARFE (National Active and Retired Federal Employees).
