This should be the week that OPM announces the 2019 government contribution toward FEHBP coverage and plans disclose that 2019 enrollee premiums and benefit changes. Woo hoo!
Congress also will be in session on Capitol Hill. Here's a link to the Week in Congress's report on last week's actions on the Hill. The FEHBlog is ecstatic that he found a website that reports on the bills, etc., that Congress is expected to consider this coming week. The Hill newspaper used to have such a weekly report. Today the FEHBlog found it on the Countable website.
The Senate Health Education Labor and Pensions Committee will hold its fourth hearing on reducing health care costs this coming Thursday at 10 am. The subtopic will be improving affordability through innovation. The FEHBlog's current preferred source for innovative ideas is the Health Payer Intelligence website.
Tomorrow, the U.S. Supreme Court will convene for its so-called super conference in anticipation of opening its October 2019 session next week. The orders from this conference will be released on Thursday.
