Federal Employees Health Benefit Program

The Federal Employees Health Benefit Program, the Senate's alternative to the "Public Option" in the current health care bill, remains a government-regulated and managed program whose costs are rising faster than average compared to the private sector according to the CBO. So much so that nearly 100,000 Federal Employees are opting out of the program because of increased costs and reduced coverage. We need to return the power of government back the people of this country.
