    The Office of Personnel Management's (OPM) mission is to help 
agencies build an effective Federal civilian workforce based on merit 
system principles, which America needs to guarantee freedom, promote 
prosperity, and ensure the security of the Nation. OPM leads Federal 
agencies in the strategic management of their human capital, proposes 
and implements human resources management policy, and provides agencies 
with ongoing advice and technical assistance to implement these policies 
and initiatives.

    In 2008, OPM will support agencies' pay-for-performance 
demonstration projects to replace the current General Scedule pay system 
with a modern classification, pay, and performance management system 
that is both results-driven and market-based.

    OPM also supports veterans' preference in Federal hiring and manages 
the process for personnel security and background checks for suitability 
and national security clearances. OPM continues to honor the 
Government's commitment to employees by managing the trust funds that 
support the retirement and insurance benefits they earn, and delivering

[[Page 1000]]

excellent benefit services and support to civil servants both during and 
after their Federal careers.

    The 2008 Budget will permit OPM to implement long-term human capital 
strategies that deliver results, pursue a progressive agenda of policy 
initiatives to transform human resources management, and enhance the 
values of the civil service. New human resources management policies 
will streamline the Federal hiring process, decrease time to hire, and 
change how Federal employees are paid and how their job performance is 
evaluated. Many of these polices will be driven by the lessons learned 
from agencies with contemporary and efficient personnel systems.

    The functions and objectives of the OPM Divisions are:

    Strategic Human Resources Policy (SHRP).--Promulgates human 
resources (HR) policies which strengthen leadership and succession 
planning activities; provides quality workforce information and common 
standards for agency payroll and HR systems; supports improved employee/
labor relations and security/suitability requirements; establishes 
competitive compensation and benefits systems; and provides agencies HR 
flexibilities to hire talent.

    In 2008, OPM will continue to lead the design, development, and 
implementation of HR policies and strategies, and carry out campaigns 
that will aid Federal agencies ability to attract and retain qualified 
employees to close mission critical skill gaps. OPM also will further 
enhance the Presidential Management Fellows and Senior Executive Service 
(SES) Federal Candidate Development programs, as needed, and develop and 
provide other tools to enhance agency recruitment programs. In 2007, OPM 
will develop proposals to enhance Federal agencies' ability to both 
attract new workers and retain highly skilled retirees on a temporary 
basis. Finally, OPM will continue to assess and report on the 
effectiveness of SES performance-based pay system each year.

    OPM will continue assessing the results of its strategic human 
resources policy activities by using Federal Human Capital Survey and 
Federal Benefits Survey data collected in 2006. These two surveys are 
administered every two years and will again be administered in 2008. OPM 
will also track and report on the extent to which agencies use 
innovations such as hiring flexibilities, telework, and student loan 
repayments. Our goal is to provide broad, Government-wide indicators on 
the status of Federal human capital to lawmakers, managers, and 
employees which will enable them to develop appropriate human resource 
polices.

    During 2006, OPM further developed policies to support agencies' 
leadership succession planning efforts. OPM previously issued 
regulations to establish an SES pay-for-performance program at an agency 
and to specify the criteria that performance management systems covering 
senior executives or senior professionals must meet. As a result of 
these regulations, at the end of 2006, most agencies have approved or 
provisionally-approved programs in place.

    OPM implemented High-Deductible Health Plans with Health Savings 
Accounts and new Dental and Vision Benefit Plans under the Federal 
Employees Health Benefit Program. Also, SHRP successfully implemented a 
number of healthcare information technology initiatives to make 
information about provider costs or medical claims available 
electronically for FEHB health plan members; redesigned the Labor 
Agreement Information Retrieval System (LAIRS) to provide ability to 
search data using key words and create reports; and added OPM's 
publication, Negotiability Determinations by the Federal Labor Relations 
Authority.

    In 2007, OPM will issue additional common data standards for payroll 
systems. In addition, OPM will issue regulations on staffing and 
employee development, classification and qualification standards 
regulations for new job families. Furthermore, OPM will announce a 
Government-wide Healthier Feds campaign challenge beginning in 2007, and 
will issue the results of the Federal Human Capital Survey. In 2007 OPM 
will also develop requirements and concept of operations for issuing and 
using a unique employee number to replace the social security number as 
the primary key to employee records. Finally, OPM will implement an 
applicant assessment decision tool/guide, and SHRP will co-host with 
agency partner(s) a forum to address SES performance and executive 
development.

    Human Capital Leadership and Merit Systems Accountability 
(HCLMSA).--Leads the Government-wide effort to transform human capital 
management so that agencies are held accountable for managing their 
workforce effectively, efficiently, and in accordance with merit system 
principles to achieve mission results.

    In 2008, as part of the President's Management Agenda, OPM will 
continue to work with Federal agencies as the owner of the Strategic 
Management of Human Capital initiative. OPM uses its leadership position 
to establish guidelines for human capital under the Standards for 
Success in the Human Capital Assessment and Accountability Framework. 
OPM provides guidance to agencies in the assessment of their human 
capital programs and assists agencies in preparing for personnel reforms 
Government-wide. As part of this guidance, OPM developed specific 
milestones that contain tools, models, and training to hold agencies 
accountable for their human capital practices. OPM also works with 
agencies to ensure that agency programs are being managed to accomplish 
the mission and are in accordance with merit system principles. In 
addition, OPM assists agencies in building and strengthening their 
internal human capital accountability programs to include data 
collection and analysis, program evaluation, and compliance with merit 
system principles.

    In 2008, HCLMSA will continue to provide technical assistance to 
agencies in various ways. For instance, OPM has statutory mandates to 
pre-approve agency actions in a wide range of human capital matters. 
HCLMSA, through agencies' Human Capital Officers, reviews and acts on 
agency requests on such authorities as: Voluntary Early Retirement 
Authority; Voluntary Separation Incentive Authority; dual compensation 
waivers; temporary and term appointment extensions; classification 
appeals; and pay and leave claims. Through these review processes, 
HCLMSA staff will work closely with agency human resources staff to 
ensure that each agency implements human capital programs that are best 
suited to achieve the agency mission.

    During 2006, HCLMSA successfully led the implementation of the 
Strategic Management of Human Capital initiative. As agencies improve 
their management of human capital, more Federal employees are working 
for organizations that are closing gaps in mission critical skills, 
better recognizing differences in levels of employee performance, 
developing a cadre of potential leaders, and linking day-to-day work to 
corporate goals.

    HCLMSA also made progress in ensuring agencies comply with the merit 
system principles in 2006 by conducting audits of 145 Delegated 
Examining Units (DEUs) and full HR Operations audits at 15 agencies. OPM 
conducted follow-up audits at 13 DEUs to ensure previously identified 
problems were adequately addressed. In addition, OPM worked extensively 
with all 26 PMA agencies to develop and implement HC Accountability 
systems that conform to OPM standards, including processes to ensure 
merit system compliance. In 2007, OPM will oversee operations of HC 
Accountability systems and provide technical assistance and direction to 
support these efforts. OPM will participate on approximately 180 agency-
led audits.

[[Page 1001]]

    Through technical assistance and outreach activities, HCLMSA 
accomplished in 2006: hiring makeovers at five agencies that 
significantly reduced the time required to fill vacancies; 39 
provisional and one full SES system certifications as well as senior 
level (SL) and senior technical (ST) system certifications; and training 
for 2,900 military personnel at 28 facilities in veterans' rights and 
benefits in Federal recruitment systems and employment. In addition, 
HCLMSA administered the SES Qualifications Review Boards which led to 
more than 900 SES career appointments. Moreover, HCLMSA cleared more 
than 300 SES noncareer and limited term appointment authorities, and 280 
requests for pay adjustment for SES noncareer appointees. In 2007, OPM 
plans to have 20 major agencies meeting targets for closing mission-
critical occupation gaps and also have 12 agencies meeting targets for 
closing leadership competency gaps.

    Human Resources Products and Services (HRPS).--Provides cost-
effective products and services to help maintain the Government's 
position as a competitive employer by assisting agencies, employees, and 
annuitants with staffing, selection, development, and retirement and 
insurance programs. In addition, HRPS is responsible for supporting the 
Department of Justice in ensuring voting rights for American citizens.

    The 2008 Budget includes funding to maintain timely processing of 
retirement claims, administer retirement insurance programs, and funding 
to continue efforts to improve the speed and accuracy of Federal retiree 
benefit payments by implementing the Retirement Systems Modernization 
(RSM) effort. RSM is OPM's central information technology strategy to 
meeting its long-term customer service, business, and financial 
management goals for the retirement benefits programs.

    RSM will deliver more cost-efficient and timely retirement services 
and allow for agency life-cycle retirement counseling. This project will 
replace OPM's legacy information technology systems with modern 
technology, move from paper to electronic record keeping, and enhance 
core retirement business processes to meet the needs of active and 
retired federal employees by providing access to account information and 
planning tools.

    The Federal Employees Health Benefits Program (FEHB) offers 
comprehensive and competitive benefit choices for Federal employees, 
annuitants, and family members, and helps the Federal government recruit 
and retain a high-quality workforce. Through FEHB, OPM will continue to 
provide customers with a variety of resources to make more informed 
health insurance decisions, including health plan brochures and website 
postings, health plan customer satisfaction survey results, web-based 
comparison/decision tools, and performance results for managed care 
health plans. In 2006, OPM implemented an employee-pay-all dental and 
vision benefits program to meet the dental and vision insurance needs of 
Federal employees.

    OPM will also continue to manage the Federal Employees' Group Life 
Insurance Program, the Federal Long Term Care Insurance Program, which 
is the largest employer-sponsored long term care insurance program in 
the world with over 210,000 enrollees, and the Flexible Spending Account 
Program which allows employees to pay for health and dependent care 
expenses on a pre-tax basis.

    In 2006, OPM successfully achieved four ambitious strategic goals 
related to retirement claims processing and services. OPM sets ambitious 
targets for its annual performance measures which assess progress in 
achieving goals and determine whether OPM meets its objectives. Claims 
are currently being processed within 35 days on average, an improvement 
over the 98 days average claims processing times in 2005. In 2006, a 
backlog elimination project was undertaken and was a significant factor 
in achieving the improvements to claims processing times. In 2007, OPM 
will add new operational goals and targets that improve customer 
service. OPM expects to maintain these improvements in 2008.

    In 2006, RSM awarded three significant contracts to support this 
effort: one for automated pension calculation; another to transform 
business and information technology; and the third to capture and 
convert paper data. In 2007, the integrated solution will be built and 
tested.

    E-Gov Projects.--OPM manages the Human Resources Line of Business 
(HR LOB) initiative which is transforming and modernizing HR business 
processes and systems Government-wide. In addition to the previously 
selected five Federal Shared Service Centers, the HR LOB is selecting 
additional private Shared Service Centers to provide technology 
solutions to support Federal agencies Government-wide with HR management 
and administrative transactional activities. The HR LOB is also 
responsible for agency migration to these service centers. In addition, 
the Enterprise Human Resources Integration project is an E-Government 
initiative to transform human resources processes from paper-based to 
electronic-based. OPM operates and maintains a comprehensive data 
warehouse of HR information across the Executive branch. Cost 
efficiencies are realized through these streamlined HR processes.

    Management Services.--Include: OPM human resources; equal employment 
opportunity; security; facilities; telecommunications; publishing; 
acquisitions; information technology management; risk management; 
strategic planning; and financial management to support all of OPM's 
goals. In 2008, OPM will continue to support agency-wide performance 
reporting and independent evaluation of policies and programs.

    Executive Services.--Includes: executive direction; legal advice and 
representation; public affairs; and legislative activities concerning 
OPM as well as assistance for the President's Commission on White House 
Fellows.

    This appropriation provides agency-wide audit, investigative, 
evaluation, inspection, and administrative sanction functions to 
identify program management and administrative deficiencies that may 
create conditions for fraud, waste, abuse, and mismanagement. The audits 
function provides internal agency audit, insurance audit, contract 
audit, and information systems audit services. Internal agency audits 
review all facets of agency operations, including financial statements. 
Insurance audits review the operations of health and life insurance 
carriers, health care providers, and insurance subscribers. Contract 
audits provide professional advice to agency contracting officials on 
accounting and financial matters regarding the negotiation, award, 
administration, repricing, and settlement of contracts. Information 
systems audits review both general controls and application controls for 
the agency's systems and programs. The investigative function provides 
for the detection and investigation of improper and illegal activities 
involving programs, personnel, and operations. The evaluations and 
inspections function conducts reviews of agency programs or functions. 
Administrative sanctions debar from participation in the health 
insurance program those health care providers whose conduct may pose a 
threat to the financial integrity of the program itself or to the well-
being of insurance program enrollees.

    During 2006, these Inspector General activities resulted in positive 
financial impacts over $75 million, 54 arrests, 56 indictments, 46 
criminal convictions, and 1,003 administrative sanctions.

    In 2008, the Office of the Inspector General (OIG) will continue to 
develop its prescription drug audit program, which includes audits of 
pharmacy benefit managers. It is estimated that $6 billion is paid 
annually for prescription drug premiums by both the Federal Government 
and employees combined. This represents approximately 26 percent of the 
total premiums for health benefit coverage for Federal employees and 
annuitants. By performing these audits, OIG assists FEHB recover 
inappropriate expenses charged in previous years, negotiate more 
favorable contracts, and positively affect the future costs and benefits 
provided to program enrollees. OIG will also continue its FEHB data 
warehouse initiative. This project streamlines and enhances the various 
administrative and analytical procedures involved in overseeing FEHB. 
The purpose of the project is to capture data from experience-rated 
insurance carriers in a data warehouse of health care information. 
Software tools are available to support a variety of analytical 
procedures, including data mining, using the data in the warehouse. The 
data warehouse project has facilitated more efficient and effective 
oversight of FEHB by enhancing the ability of our auditors and 
investigators to identify improper payments.

    This appropriation finances the Government's share of premiums, 
which is one-third the cost, for Basic life insurance for annuitants 
retiring after December 31, 1989, and who are less than 65 years old.

                                

         Payment to Civil Service Retirement and Disability Fund

     For financing the unfunded liability of new and increased annuity 
benefits becoming effective on or after October 20, 1969, as authorized 
by 5 U.S.C. 8348, and annuities under special Acts to be credited to the 
Civil Service Retirement and Disability Fund, such sums as may be 
necessary: Provided, That annuities authorized by the Act of May 29, 
1944, as amended, and the Act of August 19, 1950, as amended (33 U.S.C. 
771-775), may hereafter be paid out of the Civil Service Retirement and 
Disability Fund.

    Note.--A regular 2007 appropriation for this account had not been 
enacted at the time the budget was prepared; therefore, this account is 
operating under a continuing resolution (P.L. 109-289, Division B, as 
amended). The amounts included for 2007 in this budget reflect the 
levels provided by the continuing resolution.

    The Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act (P.L. 109-435) created 
the Postal Service Retiree Health Benefits Fund to put the Postal 
Service on a path that fully funds its substantial retiree (annuitant) 
health benefits liabilities.

    This new account receives from the Postal Service: 1) the pension 
savings provided to the Postal Service by the Postal Civil Service 
Retirement System Funding Reform Act of 2003 (P.L. 108-18) that were 
held in escrow during 2006; 2) payments defined within P.L. 109-435 to 
begin the liquidation of the Postal Service's unfunded liability for 
post-retirement health benefits; and 3) beginning in 2017, payments for 
the actuarial cost of Postal Service contributions for the post-
retirement health benefits for its current employees. The new account 
also receives the surplus resources of the Civil Service Retirement and 
Disability Fund that are not needed to finance future retirement 
benefits under the Civil Service Retirement System to current or former 
employees of the United States Postal Service that are attributable to 
civilian employment with the Postal Service.

    As a result of this new health benefits financing system, the Postal 
Service would cease to pay annual premium costs for its post-1971 
current annuitants directly to the Employees and Retired Employees 
Health Benefits Fund in 2017. Instead, these premium payments would be 
paid from amounts

[[Page 1005]]

that the Postal Service remits to this new fund. Payments for a 
proportion of the premium costs of Postal Service annuitants' pre-1971 
service would continue to be paid by the General Fund of the Treasury 
through the Government Payment for Annuitants, Employees Health Benefits 
account.

    OPM's Revolving Fund supports the President's Management Agenda by 
fully or partially funding three E-Government projects: E-Clearance; the 
Human Resources Line of Business; and Enterprise Human Resources 
Integration. On a fee-for-service basis, the Enterprise Human Resources 
Integration project provides Federal agencies with an electronic 
official personnel folder (eOPF) system, as well as workforce analysis 
and other analytical tools. These tools are designed to streamline and 
automate the electronic exchange of standardized HR data and provide 
comprehensive workforce analysis, forecasting, and reporting across the 
Executive Branch for the strategic management of human capital. The 
Revolving Fund also provides financing on a reimbursable basis for 
several other products and services to Federal agencies.

    The Center for Talent Services (CTS) delivers integrated, expert 
solutions to support Federal agencies Human Resources needs. Talent 
Services provides relevant, cost-effective products and services on a 
fee-for-service basis that span the employment life cycle from 
recruitment and selection through training and development. Examples of 
CTS's products and services include tailored recruitment and branding, 
nationwide testing services (including screening for the U.S. Armed 
Forces), employee competency assessments, workforce and succession 
planning, surveys of organizational culture and climate, strategies for 
change, and automated Human Resources tools such as USAJOBS and 
USAStaffing.

    The Federal Investigative Services Division (FISD) provides 
background investigative services to agencies on a fee basis. FISD 
conducts more than 90 percent of the Federal Government's background 
investigations concerning Federal employees, contractors, and military 
members for various Federal agencies. Investigations are a critical step 
in the Federal hiring processes, and can affect hiring or removal 
decisions based on the individual's fitness and suitability for 
employment. Based on information gathered in background investigations, 
Federal agencies also issue security clearances and place individuals in 
positions involving national security or the public trust where job 
duties are most sensitive to the employing agency.

    Since the merger with the Department of Defense, Defense Security 
Service in early 2005, OPM has focused on developing policies and 
strategies to meet OPM strategic goals and goals set forth by the 
Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act (IRTPA) of 2004. FISD 
has primarily focused on reducing the backlog of pending investigations 
while also improving the timeliness on completing investigations. FISD 
has initiated aggressive hiring and training to bolster the field 
investigator workforce as well as administrative support for reviewing 
and closing out investigations. An International Group has been 
established to coordinate and conduct overseas investigations for 
Department of Defense personnel. OPM recently entered into a memorandum 
of understanding with the Department of State to assist in conducting 
overseas investigations on military installations. This relationship 
will provide additional resources and increase the timeliness for 
completing these background investigations.

    OPM has also initiated a major review and update of the core 
technology components of the Investigations program. A modernization 
analysis has started on the Personnel Investigations Processing System 
(PIPS) which is the case management system used to process all 
background investigations. An imaging system continues to be piloted 
which will allow for the electronic delivery and storage of case papers. 
The e-QIP system continues to be deployed in federal agencies and 
provides agencies with the ability to remotely enter and transmit case 
papers when requesting a background investigation. Ultimately, these 
types of technical initiatives will improve the conducting of 
investigations and granting of clearances.

    OPM continues to work together with the Office of Management and 
Budget and other stakeholders to meet various requirements concerning 
the investigative and security clearance programs that were outlined by 
the IRTPA. Some of the IRTPA requirements include: 1) ensuring 
reciprocity of security clearances and access determinations; 2) 
creating a database on security clearances; and 3) evaluating the use of 
available technology in clearance investigations and adjudication.

    The Center for Leadership Capacity Services (CLCS) conducts 
residential and nonresidential programs for Federal executives and 
managers to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of Federal 
programs, and provides on-line training for employees at all levels. 
CLCS operates three leadership development centers serving government 
managers and executives

[[Page 1006]]

from GS-11 to SES. CLCS courses are designed to fit the long term career 
development path of emerging federal leaders. These open enrollment 
courses are accredited and can be applied to college level degree 
programs. In addition, CLCS offers custom-designed leadership programs 
for individual agencies and also for communities of professional 
interest. Moreover, CLCS develops and delivers leadership candidate 
development and succession planning programs, including the Presidential 
Management Fellows program, and consulting services for leading 
organizational change initiatives.

                 Summary of Budget Authority and Outlays

                        (in millions of dollars)

                                     2006 actual  2007 est.   2008 est.
Enacted/requested:

  Outlays.....................         57,983         84,538          64,232
Legislative proposal, subject to 
    PAYGO:
  Budget Authority............                                             2
  Outlays.....................                                             2

Total:
  Budget Authority............         58,261         84,821          64,486
  Outlays.....................         57,983         84,538          64,234

    This fund: 1) pays annuities to retired employees or their 
survivors; 2) makes refunds to separated employees for amounts withheld 
and to beneficiaries of employees who died before retirement or before 
annuities equaled the amount withheld; and 3) pays expenses of OPM for 
administering the program.

    The fund covers two Federal civilian retirement systems: the Civil 
Service Retirement System (CSRS) and the Federal Employees' Retirement 
System (FERS).

    CSRS is basically a defined benefit plan, covering Federal employees 
hired prior to 1984. CSRS participants do not participate in the Social 
Security system. FERS is a three-tiered pension program that uses Social 
Security as a base, provides an additional basic benefit, and includes a 
thrift savings plan. FERS covers employees hired after 1983 and formerly 
CSRS-covered employees who elected to join FERS.

    The Budget includes funding for legislation which would correct 
benefit inequities, simplify program administration, and reduce improper 
payments. The legislation would specifically include technical changes 
and clarification in the calculation of retirement annuities. These 
improvements would be focused on civil service retirees also receiving 
military disability retirement, individuals with part-time service 
retiring under CSRS, and the authorization for employees to contribute 
bonus pay to their TSP. The Budget also includes funding for a 
legislative proposal to transition from non-foreign cost of living 
allowances (COLA) to locality pay for employees working in non-foreign 
areas. This will result in increased retirement pay for affected 
employees when they retire, since locality pay is creditable for 
retirement. OPM will also continue working with the Department of the 
Treasury to submit legislation to revise an existing exception to the 
Right to Financial Privacy Act to allow OPM to trace and recover 
retirement payments sent electronically to the wrong account. The Budget 
also includes a proposal that the United States Patent and Trademark 
Office (PTO) will fund the full cost for retirement benefits for PTO's 
employees covered under the Civil Service Retirement System.

    This display combines FEHB fund and the Retired Employees Health 
Benefits (REHB) fund.

    The FEHB fund provides for the cost of health benefits for: 1) 
active employees; 2) employees who retired after June 1960, or their 
survivors; 3) those annuitants transferred from the REHB program as 
authorized by Public Law 93-246; and 4) the related expenses of OPM in 
administering the program.

    The REHB fund, created by the Retired Federal Employees Health 
Benefits Act of 1960, provides for: 1) the cost of health benefits for 
retired employees and survivors who enroll in a Government-sponsored 
uniform health benefits plan; 2) the contribution to retired employees 
and survivors who retain or purchase private health insurance; and 3) 
expenses of OPM in administering the program.

    Budget program.--The balance of the FEHB fund is available for 
payments without fiscal year limitation. Numbers of participants at the 
end of each fiscal year are as follows:

                                     2006 actual  2007 est.   2008 est.
Active employees..............      2,169,470      2,159,000       2,157,000
Annuitants....................      1,854,684      1,886,000       1,912,500
                                    ------------------------------------
    Total.....................      4,024,154      4,045,000       4,070,000
                                    ====================================

    In determining a biweekly subscription rate to cover program costs, 
one percent is added for administrative expenses and three percent is 
added for a contingency reserve held by OPM for each carrier. OPM is 
authorized to transfer unused administrative reserve funds to the 
contingency reserve.

    The REHB fund is available without fiscal year limitation. The 
amounts contributed by the Government are paid into the fund from annual 
appropriations. The number of participants at the end of each fiscal 
year are as follows:

                                     2006 actual  2007 est.   2008 est.
Uniform plan..................            371            304             249
Private plans.................            931            763             626
                                    ------------------------------------
    Total.....................          1,302          1,067             875
                                    ====================================

    Financing.--The funds are financed by: 1) withholdings from active 
employees and annuitants; 2) agency contributions for active employees; 
3) Government contributions for annuitants appropriated to OPM; and 4) 
contributions made by the United States Postal Service in accordance 
with the provisions of Public Law 101-508 and Public Law 103-66.

     Funds made available to carriers but not used to pay claims in the 
current period are carried forward as special reserves for use in 
subsequent periods. OPM maintains a contingency reserve, funded by 
employee and Government contributions, that may be used to defray future 
cost increases or provide increased benefits. OPM makes payments to 
carriers from this reserve whenever carrier-held reserves fall below 
levels prescribed by OPM regulations or when carriers can demonstrate 
good cause such as unexpected claims experience or variations from 
expected community rates.

    The Budget reflects savings from a proposed technical change to the 
FEHB statute that will permit the programs Service Benefit Plan and 
Indemnity Benefit Plan to offer more

[[Page 1010]]

than two coverage options and from a proposal to reduce the amount of 
the Government contribution for new annuitants with fewer than 10 years 
of Federal service. These and other cost-neutral proposals will be 
transmitted separately. Finally, the Budget also proposes that the PTO 
will fund the accruing costs associated with post-retirement health 
benefits for PTO's employees.
