To allow employees of Federally-qualified health centers to obtain health coverage under chapter 89 of title 5, United States Code.

H.R. 4980 is a legislative proposal that would allow employees of Federally-Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) to enroll in the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program (FEHBP). Currently, the FEHBP is the health insurance system primarily reserved for federal employees, retirees, and their survivors. By extending this eligibility, the bill aims to provide healthcare workers at community-based clinics with access to the same range of standardized, government-negotiated insurance plans available to federal civil servants.
