FINDING THE RIGHT HEALTH PLAN
1. Go to liteblue.usps.gov/planselection and click the link for Checkbook’s Guide to Health Plans.
2. On the Let’s Get Started page, select:
o The ZIP Code™ where you will primarily be receiving health care services.
o Your enrollment category – bargaining (select appropriate Category #), non-bargaining or non-career.
o The number of people in your family you want to cover with your health insurance for 2019. Your age as of Jan. 1, 2019.
o Whether you consider your health care costs to be low, average or high. If you aren’t sure, select average.
3. Health care plans available to you are sorted:
* Automatically based on the Yearly Cost Estimate (for families like yours).
* By Most You Could Pay in a Year or the Annual Published Premium (the amount you pay out of your paycheck to be in the plan).
Compare up to four plans by checking the box next to each plan and clicking Compare.
4. Identify the plan that's best for you and your family. Write down the Plan Name and Plan Code in the blanks below. You will need this to make your Open Season election.
