The retiree is talking to a CFP, one of my referral sources. If any of you have had someone with FEHB do you know if leaving the federal health system at retirement before age 65 would void their eligibility for FEHB Medicare related benefits? This is my main question, but not the only consideration.
One caution I also mentioned is that the currently generous tax credits on ACA coverage, what the retiree is thinking about, are only extended so far to 2025. Through the end of the 2025 coverage year, there is no maximum income limit for the premium tax credit. People whose benchmark premium costs more than 8.5% of household income qualify for a premium tax credit if they meet other eligibility criteria.
After 2 years depending on income, the retiree could be in trouble with hoped for tax credits.
