Listen "Adding a new spouse to FEHB in Retirement?"
Episode Synopsis
Kevin explains that adding a spouse to health insurance and electing a survivor benefit in retirement are two separate processes. Getting married in retirement allows you to add your spouse to health insurance, but to keep the survivor benefit, you must elect it and start paying for it, even paying back missed premiums. It is recommended to attend workshops to better understand the complexity of the survivor benefit program.
