Surcharges

Find out if the tobacco use premium surcharge and the spouse or state-registered domestic partner coverage premium surcharge apply to you.

About the surcharges

The Legislature requires two premium surcharges that may be added to your medical plan premium each month:

These surcharges apply to PEBB subscribers who:

  • Are enrolled in a PEBB medical plan.
    and
  • Do not have Medicare Part A and Part B as their primary coverage.

When you enroll in or add a dependent to your PEBB medical, you must respond on your enrollment form to whether the tobacco use and spousal coverage premium surcharges apply.
