Network and access
As an FEHB member with UPMC Health Plan coverage, you have access to the top-ranked doctors of UPMC. Nearly 500 UPMC physicians have been recognized as 2025 "Top Doctors" across more than 60 different specialties. These physicians were part of the Top Doctors® list, which was compiled by Castle Connolly. The Castle Connolly Top Doctor selection process is entirely merit-based. Doctors cannot pay to be listed.
You also have access to an extended network of providers for care wherever you are in the U.S,4 as well as access to more than 65,000 pharmacies nationwide.
Medicare options
You can get more out of your coverage by combining a Medicare plan option with our FEHB plan options. You can lower your out-of-pocket costs when you pair the Standard Option HMO with our Medicare Advantage plan: UPMC for Life FEHB Retirees. You can also pair your Original Medicare with the Standard Option HMO.

1095-B tax forms
As of January 2020, the Internal Revenue Service no longer requires you to file the 1095-B form as part of your federal tax return because Congress eliminated the tax penalty for failing to meet the individual mandate. UPMC Health Plan will no longer mail the form to you, but you can easily obtain an electronic copy by visiting the UPMC Health Plan member site for quick and convenient access. Search under Forms and Guides, then navigate to Plans and Coverage.
You may also request a printed copy of your 1095-B form by:
- Mailing your request to Attn: Enrollment, UPMC Health Plan, 600 Grant Street, Pittsburgh, PA 15219.
- Submitting a request online by filling out our 1095-B contact form or emailing your request to 1095BInquiry@upmc.edu. Please include your member ID, name, and the tax year being requested.
Please note: With the exception of members of Congress or designated Congressional staff, the Health Insurance Marketplace does not affect FEHB Program enrollees. For additional information, visit OPM's website.
