New for 2025: G.E.H.A Prescription Drug Plan
A Medicare PDP / EGWP that provides even greater prescription benefits.
Announcing a new G.E.H.A Prescription Drug Plan/EGWP, a Medicare PDP/EGWP that provides comprehensive prescription benefits.
Your ability to get the prescriptions that you need is important to your health. This additional coverage means that you may receive even greater savings on your prescriptions at no additional cost to your current premiums.
G.E.H.A members don't have to do anything to enroll in the G.E.H.A Prescription Drug Plan/EGWP. You will be auto enrolled if you are an annuitant in G.E.H.A's PSHB plans or G.E.H.A's FEHB Standard or High plan — and you have Medicare Parts A and/or B for the 2025 Plan Year. The G.E.H.A Prescription Drug Plan/EGWP is offered by SilverScript® Insurance Company, which is affiliated with CVS Caremark®, G.E.H.A's current pharmacy benefit manager.
Who qualifies for G.E.H.A Prescription Drug Plan/EGWP?
- All G.E.H.A PSHB retirees with Medicare Parts A and/or B who live in the US
- All G.E.H.A. FEHB retirees with Standard or High with Medicare Parts A and/or B who live in the US
Will I receive a new/separate prescription ID card?
New members will receive a member ID card to use at the pharmacy in a separate mailing. This card will not be active until January 1, 2025.
Not interested in the G.E.H.A Prescription Drug Plan/EGWP?
- G.E.H.A PSHB retirees with Medicare Parts A and/or B who cancel their enrollment will not have prescription drug coverage with PSHB.
- G.E.H.A FEHB retirees with Standard or High with Medicare Parts A and/or B who cancel their enrollment will be transitioned back to their base FEHB plan or commercial prescription drug plan.
If you would like to cancel your enrollment in the G.E.H.A Prescription Drug Plan/EGWP, please call 1-833-250-3241 (TTY: 711), 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, by December 31, 2024. Members who cancel their enrollment will receive a confirmation letter in approximately ten days. FEHB retirees who cancel their enrollment by December 31, 2024, can access their prescription benefits from their base FEHB plan starting January 1, 2025.
