Can I add dependents to my FEHBP plan?

Yes, it is possible to add dependents to a Federal Employees Health Benefits Program plan. Typically, eligible dependents include a spouse and children under a certain age, and in some cases, other family members may qualify. To add dependents, an individual usually needs to complete the necessary paperwork and may have to provide documentation proving the relationship and eligibility of the dependents. The process for making changes, such as adding dependents, generally occurs during the Open Season, which occurs once a year, or during qualifying life events such as marriage, birth, or adoption. It is important to review the specific terms and conditions of the FEHBP plan, as policies may differ based on the chosen health plan.
