Plain-English summary
Ensuring FEDVIP and FLTCIP Coverage During Shutdowns Act
This bill prohibits the termination of federal-employee dental, vision, and long-term-care insurance coverage as a result of unpaid premiums or other periodic charges in the event of a lapse in appropriations that results in an employee being placed in a nonpay status. This includes supplemental dental, vision, and long-term-care insurance policies.
