Sec. 1631.205-80  Major subcontractor service charges.

    In a subcontract for enrollment and eligibility determinations, 
administration of claims and payment of benefits, and payment or 
provision of actual health services, and/or assumption of insurance risk 
or underwriting, when costs are determined on the basis of actual costs 
incurred or experience rating, any amount that exceeds the allowable 
cost of the subcontract (whether entitled service charge, profit, fee, 
contribution to reserve, surplus, or any other title) is not allowable 
under the contract. Amounts which exceed allowable costs may be paid to 
a major subcontractor only from the service charge negotiated between 
OPM and the Carrier.
