Ref: (a) Federal Personnel Manual Supplement 792-1, Occupational

Health Service for Federal Civilian Employees

1. PURPOSE. This instruction describes the limited health care services available to Coast Guard

civilian employees at Coast Guard health care facilities. Eligibility fgor this program is

expanded to include Non appropriated Fund employees.

2. BACKGROUND. Title 5, United States Code (Section 7901) states: "The head of each

agency of the Government of the United States may establish within the limits of appropriations

available, a health service program to promote and maintain the physical and mental fitness of

employees under his jurisdiction." Reference (a) provides guidance for planning, operating,

and evaluating occupational health services for Federal civil service employees.

3. DISCUSSION. The objective of this program is to assist Coast Guard civilian employees to

maintain optimum health while on the job, and to increase Coast Guard productivity by

maintaining the optimum health of the Coast Guard work force. In accordance with 5 USC

2105(c), employees paid from non appropriated funds are eligible for the same levels of care

and availability as are Coast Guard "civil service" personnel, subject to the regulations of the

Office of Personnel Management. Civilian employees of other Federal agencies and contractor

employees (e.g., A-76, UNYSIS, security guards) are not covered by the provisions of this

instruction.
