My FEHB enrollment terminated after 18 months. My agency just informed me they can extend my coverage for 6 months if I request it. Will this be an opportunity for me to change plans?

No. If you request the additional coverage, you will be reinstated into the same plan. However, if the plan you were in no longer exists, your agency must allow you to select another plan. Your change would be retroactive to your reinstatement date. As in the above question, remember that you are responsible for determining if providers used during the additional 6-month period participate in your new plan's network.
