We recommend that OPM work with the OCFO to establish internal procedures for properly reviewing and verifying the accuracy and completeness of the working capital schedules reported in the AAS by FFS and ER HMO carriers.

11 No $0 $0

We recommend that OPM establish PBM transparency standards for all new, renewed, or amended contracts that are specific to community-rated HMOs.

12 No $0 $0
13 No $0 $0

We recommend that OPM develop formal policies to ensure that site visits are conducted every three years for FEHBP carriers in accordance with its control to meet OMB Circular A-123 requirements. If the time and costs to perform the site visits outweigh the benefits, OPM should modify its controls and report new procedures to mitigate risks for the FEHBP payment process.

16 No $0 $0

We recommend that OPM eliminate the self-certification process for FEDVIP and implement an enrollment verification process that requires documentation to prove family member relationships at the time of enrollment. In the meantime, BENEFEDS, as the sole enrollment portal for FEDVIP, should have the authority to request eligibility documentation that includes marriage and birth certificates.

22 No $0 $0

We recommend that OPM develop standard performance metrics with penalties to be included in all new or renewed contracts with FEDVIP carriers.
