Sec. 1631.205-78  FEHBP printed material costs.

    Unless OPM determines that it is in the best interest of the FEHBP 
to do otherwise, if a carrier orders printed material that is available 
from the Government Printing Office (GPO) under the ``rider system'' 
from another source, the allowable contract charges shall be the lesser 
of the amount actually paid or the cost that would have been incurred 
had the carrier ridden OPM's GPO order.
