"Federal Retirement" recently presented a series of Medicare columns. Those employees who are within five years of retirement eligibility and current federal retirees are highly encouraged to read each of those columns in order to get a better understanding of how FEHB program health plans coordinate with Medicare. Federal retirees who enroll in Medicare can save thousands of dollars during their retirement by being enrolled in both Medicare and an FEHB health plan considered to be a Medicare supplemental plan. Federal retirees who enroll in Medicare do not have to purchase a private Medicare supplemental plan or a Medigap plan.
