And Medicare B goes up but private sector won't have to pay, but CSRS will. Not yet on Medicare, but not giving up FEHB BCBS.
Self + 1 can be used for either your spouse or one child under age 26.

If you are talking about BCBS rates and the Standard option the rate for Self + 1 will be 501.17. Family will be 516.18, an increase of 54.01 over last year. So Self + 1 is cheaper than Family - but still $38.00 more than we paid last year.
