Privacy Act of 1974; System of Records
Personnel Management Office · Notice
Summary
In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) proposes to modify and republish in full a system of records previously titled "OPM/Central-15, Health Claims Data Warehouse Records" which will be renamed "OPM/Central-15, Health Benefits Claims and Cost Records." The modification is necessary to include Postal Service Health Benefits Program records in the system, to provide notice of additional data fields collected to support the Federal Employees Health Benefits (FEHB) Program, as well as to provide notice of additional routine uses to the system. The system of records contains health benefits service use and cost data about enrollees and their family members, who are or have been covered under the FEHB Program. As in previous notices for this system of records, the term "service use and cost data" includes, but is not limited to, medical claims data, pharmacy claims data, encounter data, and provider data. The system of records also includes Medicare service use and cost data about FEHB- covered individuals who are enrolled in Medicare. This notice clarifies that references in the system of records to the "FEHB Program" or "FEHB" include the Postal Service Health Benefits Program ("PSHB Program" or "PSHB") within the FEHB Program.
