NALC Headquarters has reported that some members have received invoices from USPS for non-payment of health benefit premiums. It is advised that these invoices should not be disregarded, and each case should be individually examined and disputed if the invoice is incorrect.

The Postal Service has indicated that around 3 percent of enrollees in the Postal Service Health Benefits (PSHB) Program did not have premiums deducted for one or more pay periods. Members who find the debt to be valid are instructed to follow the guidelines in the letter to either pay the full amount or arrange payment through salary offset.
