HR administrators can enroll employees in agency-sponsored health plans that are not part of the Federal Employees' Health Benefits program administered by the OPM. For example, if you hire an employee who previously worked for the state, that person might wish to continue the state benefit health plan.

   To enroll an employee in an agency health plan:

1. Process an Appointment action.

   If you process an Appointment action, the application automatically generates an Initial Opportunity to Enroll life event. If you process a transfer or rehire action, the application processes a Continuing Coverage life event.

   See: Appointment, Conversion, and Extension Enrolments, Administration of Specific Life Events

2. Click Extra Information, select the US Federal Benefit RPA extra information, click in the Details field to display the extra information, and enter the benefits information.

3. In the FEHB Enrollment field, select W Agency Sponsored Health Plan.

4. In the FEHB Health Plan field, select plan ZZ Federal Employee Health Benefit Special Code.

5. Complete the benefits information and the remaining fields of the Appointment action. Approve and update the RPA following your agency's practices.
