Springer and program experts will lead a news briefing on Thursday, September 13 at 2 p.m. to discuss premium changes, benefits, and innovations in the 2008 Federal Benefits Program. The Federal Benefits Program Open Season (formerly the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program Open Season) will run from November 12 through December 10, 2007.
The name change to the Federal Benefits Program Open Season reflects the additional benefits programs that now are available to federal employees and retirees.
