2025 Open Season

Your Guide to the 2025 Open Season for Health Benefits!

UPDATE FROM OPM: The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) has extended Open Season for the Postal Service Health Benefits Program (PSHBP) until Friday, Dec. 13th at 11:59 pm EST. Open Season for health benefits is here!

It runs Nov. 11 through Dec. 13, and it marks the first Open Season under the new Postal Service Health Benefits (PSHB) Program

What You Need to Know:

  • Automatic Enrollment: If your current health plan is transitioning to PSHB, you’ll be automatically enrolled in the same plan for 2025. No action needed unless you wish to switch.
  • Make Changes: If your plan is not participating in PSHB, you must choose a new plan during this Open Season, or you’ll be automatically enrolled in a basic nationwide option.

Below are recent materials sent from OPM. Use them to help you set up your login.gov account and navigate the enrollment site. More information will be provided here as it becomes available.

Experiencing issues with login.gov? Try Form 2809! Postal Service Health Benefits program enrollment can be facilitated by completing form SF2809, Health Benefits Election Form, accessible on the OPM website and MyHR.USPS.gov. If more assistance is needed, click here.
