What is a Certificate of Group Health Plan Coverage?

This certificate is evidence of your coverage under this plan.

Why do I need a Certificate of Group Health Plan Coverage?

You can use this certificate when getting health insurance or other health care coverage.

If you have been enrolled with us for less than 12 months, but were previously enrolled in other FEHB plans, you may also request a certificate from those plans.

If you leave the FEHB Program, we will automatically generate a Certificate of Group Health Plan Coverage that indicates how long you have been enrolled with us.
