About MHBP

The Mail Handlers Benefit Plan (MHBP) was created in 1963 and is sponsored by the National Postal Mail Handlers Union (NPMHU). We have served federal and postal employees and annuitants for over 45 years, offering comprehensive benefits at affordable rates.

MHBP offers health plans nationwide to federal and postal employees and annuitants. All three of our health plan options are supported by our customer-centric services:
