Potential government shutdown

In the event of a federal government shutdown, individuals enrolled in Apple Health (Medicaid), Public Employees Benefits Board, and School Employees Benefits Board coverage - and those accessing behavioral health services - will not experience a disruption in care. In addition, health care providers will continue to be paid for the services they provide.

Longer than usual processing time for Medicare enrollment

Social Security is currently experiencing longer than usual processing times for Medicare enrollment requests. We strongly encourage applying to Social Security for Medicare enrollment three months before your Medicare start date.

If you are unable to provide proof of Medicare enrollment due to Social Security delays, you can enroll in PEBB COBRA to ensure coverage until you are able to provide proof of Medicare. Once proof of Medicare is provided, PEBB retiree coverage will be retroactive to the date of Medicare enrollment and any overpayments will be refunded.
