Using a TSP loan to pay off a medical bill for a discount

I have a large medical bill that I was planning on paying off in 36 interest-free monthly installments. However, the hospital sent me a letter saying that if I pay the bill in full now, the bill will be lowered to 30% off. Would it be worth it to pay it in full using funds from a TSP loan? I’d pay the 30% that I received back immediately, then let the rest do its work or make contributions here and there as I save more. What are your thoughts?

Liraglutide with GEHA FEHB Standard

With previous insurance I was taking Zepbound, but based on everything I've read, GEHA considers that non-formulary and wants $550/mo because they cover generic liraglutide for $10/mo. So my PCP sent over a PA for that, which was denied, saying I need to be physically active and in a calorie deficit, which i am. I'm just wondering next steps because I'm sure I'm not the only one that has went through this. Thanks.

Wegovy Cost at Different Pharmacies - MHBP Standard

Hi all. Does anyone with MHBP Standard know if Wegovy (specifically, the starting auto injector dose) is priced differently at Walgreen vs. CVS Pharmacy?I originally had the prescription sent to Walgreens but they didn’t show any insurance discount applied, so I was like NOPE. Not paying $1200. I know MHBP seems to prefer CVS (maybe? At least for GLP-1s?) so I just had my prescription sent there instead since Walgreens hadn’t actually filled the prescription yet. Fast forward, CVS won’t fill my prescription until 6/27, after I have my first appointment with the doctor through the Health Optimizer program. Fine, okay. But Walgreens has now filled my prescription and said it’s only $200 after insurance. So I’m wondering if I should just pick it up at Walgreens for $200 or if I should wait because CVS will be cheaper?

Federal retirees with MHBP and signed up for Silverscript this year.

We are having a heck of a time getting prescriptions filled through Caremark mail order. Things were going fine until this month. These are prescriptions which we've had for ages. Our doctor has made some changes to his operations also, so I'm trying to figure out if the hangups are the fault of Caremark, Silverscript, or the doctor.Has anyone else had issues?

Fork In The Road - Fed Buyout

Did any of you take the buyout.. but have applied for another federal job since September 2025? Looking to apply for a few now that everything is over and wanted some insight. I applied for several federal jobs, separate from the agency I resigned from, with no luck during the initial buyout time period. Similar experiences?

Some older feds can buy back civilian service credit for internships and part-time jobs they had while young

I had a U.S. Senate internship that ended in March 1988. My salary was a whopping $600 per month. Because the internship happened before January 1, 1989, when a statutory change became effective, for a bit less than $140 , I was able to "buy back" 87 days of FERS service credit [0.8% of total salary + 38 years of accrued interest]. When I retire in sometime in the next several years, that service credit will increase my FERS annuity by approximately $30 per month. ​I may not be the only older fed who didn't know I could buy back my internship time. I had long wondered about it, but had convinced myself that it wasn't possible. I learned that I could do it after a guy, who recently retired, told me that his agency's HR office told him that he could buy back his time from his job during his high school years that was on a military base in Germany.​To be clear, this loophole only applies to creditable civilian service that occurred prior to January 1, 1989.​Hope this comes as good news for someone.
