Most postal employees and retirees are eligible to enroll in and become members of APWU Health Plan.
Postal Service employees in the APWU bargaining unit must become dues-paying members of the APWU, except where exempt by law.
Are you outside of the bargaining unit?
USPS employees in non-APWU bargaining units—including letter carriers, mail handlers, and rural carriers—may enroll in APWU Health Plan by becoming an associate member of the union for only $35.
Ready to enroll?
Postal employees can enroll for the 2025 plan year online, by mail, or by fax. To enroll online, visit the online enrollment system during Open Season, November 11 – December 13, 2024. If you are new to the system, you will need to create an account.
The APWU has negotiated for non-career PSEs to have access to the PSHB Program.
As a PSE, after one year of service, when you enroll in the Consumer Driven Option, the USPS pays up to 75% of your premium. With other plans, you’re responsible for paying 100% of the premium.
Ready to enroll?
Enroll in your 2025 plan online through LiteBlue or download and complete the required PSE enrollment forms.
All postal retirees who are eligible to enroll in the PSHB Program are welcome to choose APWU Health Plan.
