Insurance FAQs Dental & Vision

FEDVIP Carriers

• How do the FEDVIP plans differ from the dental and vision benefits FEHB plans provide as part of the FEHB benefits package? View more
  FEHB and FEDVIP are separate programs. While some FEHB plans offer dental or vision benefits as part of their benefit package, only those carriers under contract to OPM are FEDVIP plans. FEDVIP plans offer comprehensive dental and vision benefits. FEDVIP is not part of the FEHB program, and it is different from any supplementary dental and vision product your FEHB plan may offer.
