The process to submit a claim online is simple: login to the Member Portal with your username and password. Once inside the portal, under the Secure Forms tab, select “Submit A Claim.” Follow the screen prompts to upload your PDF claim documents. You have the option to include questions or comments, or to send your claim to a specific Health Benefits Officer. Please ensure your name and member ID number appear on the claim.
If you are serving overseas, note that using State Department mail (Pouch Mail) will delay your claim’s processing significantly.
FSBP has a special arrangement with the e-Cleveland Clinic to provide our members with the option of a second opinion for certain diagnoses received from a foreign provider. The Overseas Second Opinion benefit provides access to nationally recognized specialists for a second opinion via the e-Cleveland Clinic. Once you obtain the second opinion, you choose whether to proceed with the original course of treatment, seek out another opinion, or arrange care with an alternate physician. To determine if you are eligible to participate, visit https://fsbp.globalvso.io
If you would like to see a second provider of your choice while serving overseas, the consultation and any medically necessary tests or services will be covered in the same way as any overseas provider.
FSBP was designed to make it easy for our members to receive the healthcare they need while overseas – anywhere in the world. Simply see the healthcare provider of your choice, pay your bill, and send us an itemized receipt along with the contact information of the provider. No translation or currency exchange information is necessary. (See Claims for more detailed instruction.)
FSBP staff focuses on building new relationships with providers that can serve large populations of our membership.

While we may be unable to pursue every suggestion, you are welcome to share your recommendations about providers that may serve our membership. well. Please contact us.
