Do US congress get health insurance for life?

Yes, U.S. Congress members are eligible for health insurance through the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program (FEHBP), which they can enroll in while in office. While they do not receive health insurance for life automatically, they can continue their FEHBP coverage after leaving Congress, provided they meet certain requirements, such as being enrolled for five years prior to retirement. However, they must pay the premiums themselves, unlike active members who have a portion covered by the government.
