OFFICE OF PERSONNEL 

MANAGEMENT 

Excepted Service; Consolidated 

Listing of Schedules A, B, and C 

Exceptions 

AGENCY: Office of Personnel 

Management. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: This provides the 

consolidated notice of all agency 

specific excepted authorities, approved 

by the Office of Personnel Management 

(OPM), under Schedule A, B, and C, as 

of June 30, 2014, as required by Civil 

Service Rule VI, Exceptions from the 

Competitive Service. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Senior Executive Resources Services, 

Senior Executive Service and 

Performance Management, Employee 

Services, (202) 606–2246. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Civil 

Service Rule VI (5 CFR 6.1) requires the 

U.S. Office of Personnel Management 

(OPM) to publish notice of exceptions 

granted under Schedule A, B, and C. 

Under 5 CFR 213.103(a) it is required 

that all Schedule A, B, and C appointing 

authorities available for use by all 

agencies to be published as regulations 

in the Federal Register (FR) and the 

Code of Federal Regulations (CFR). 

Excepted appointing authorities 

established solely for use by one 

specific agency do not meet the 

standard of general applicability 

prescribed by the Federal Register Act 

for regulations published in either the 

FR or the CFR. Therefore, 5 CFR 

213.103(b) requires monthly 

publication, in the Notices section of the 

Federal Register, of any Schedule A, B, 

and C appointing authorities applicable 

to a single agency. Under 5 CFR 

213.103(c) it is required that a 

consolidated listing of all Schedule A, 

B, and C authorities, current as of June 

30 of each year, be published annually 

in the Notices section of the Federal 

Register at www.federalregister.gov/

agencies/personnel-management-office. 

That notice follows. Governmentwide 

authorities codified in the CFR are not 

printed in this notice. 

When making appointments under an 

agency-specific authority, agencies 

should first list the appropriate 

Schedule A, B, or C, followed by the 

applicable number, for example: 

Schedule A, 213.3104(x)(x). Agencies 

are reminded that all excepted 

authorities are subject to the provisions 

of 5 CFR part 302 unless specifically 

exempted by OPM at the time of 

approval. 

OPM maintains continuing 

information on the status of all 

Schedule A, B, and C appointing 

authorities. Interested parties needing 

information about specific authorities 

during the year may obtain information 

by writing to the Senior Executive 

Resource Services, Office of Personnel 

Management, 1900 E Street NW., Room 

7412, Washington, DC 20415, or by 

calling (202) 606–2246.

mspp@opm.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

Section 1334 of the Patient Protection 

and Affordable Care Act (‘‘Affordable 

Care Act’’) (42 U.S.C. 18054) authorizes 

OPM to establish and administer the 

Multi-State Plan (MSP) Program to 

increase consumer choice and foster 

competition across the Marketplace. 

Under Section 1334(h) of the Affordable 

Care Act, the Director of OPM must 

‘‘establish an advisory board to provide 

recommendations on the activities’’ of 

the MSP Program and a ‘‘significant 

percentage of the members of such 

board shall be comprised of enrollees in 

a multi-State qualified health plan, or 

representatives of such enrollees.’’ 

Members of the Advisory Board shall 

exchange information, ideas, and 

recommendations regarding OPM’s 

administration of the MSP Program, 

including plan design, branding and 

marketing, network adequacy, and other 

topics assigned to it by the Director. 

Advisory Board meetings will serve as 

a forum for interactive dialogue and 

exchange of individual experiences and 

viewpoints among consumers, 

consumer representatives, and OPM 

staff. This forum will serve to better 

inform OPM’s policy development, 

rulemaking, and outreach activities with 

regard to the MSP Program. 

II. Requests for Applications 

The Advisory Board shall consist of 

up to 15 members and will be cochaired by the OPM Director or his/her 

designee and an MSP Program enrollee. 

Advisory Board members generally 

serve for a term of two years and may 

be re-appointed by the Director of OPM 

or his/her designee. A significant 

percentage of the Advisory Board 

members should be MSP Program 

enrollees or MSP Program enrollee 

representatives. Enrollee representatives 

may include public health and/or 

healthcare professionals (including 

providers, navigators, and assisters) or 

members of other consumer advocacy 

groups that have worked with or on 

behalf of healthcare consumers. Health 

insurance issuers or representatives of 

health insurance issuers will not be 

considered for Advisory Board 

membership. 

We are seeking applicants that have 

knowledge and experience in one or 

more of the following fields: 

• Experience as an MSP enrollee or 

MSP enrollee representative 

• Experience with and/or knowledge of 

public health or health insurance 

issues 

• Experience working for and/or with 

consumer advocacy groups regarding 

healthcare issues 

• Knowledge of the Affordable Care 

Act, the health care system, or healthrelated programs. 

Applicants must answer questions 

regarding their experience with the MSP 

Program, knowledge of the Affordable 

Care Act, and experience working with 

various consumer groups and must also 

answer questions regarding conflicts of 

interest. 

We hope to establish a board that 

draws from all segments of society, 

including, but not limited to, 

individuals with disabilities or who 

belong to, work for, or represent 

disability organizations; lesbian, gay, 

bisexual, transgender (LGBT) people or 

people who belong to, work for, or 

represent LGBT organizations; people 

who come from rural or medicallyunderserved populations or who belong 

to, work for, or represent organizations 

that work on behalf of such populations; 

people who are members of racial or 

ethnic minorities or who belong to, 

work for, or represent organizations that 

work on behalf of such minority groups; 

and people who are members of tribes 

or who belong to, work for, or represent 

tribal organizations. For that reason, we 

encourage all individuals who believe 

they have relevant expertise or a 

perspective that would be useful to offer 

to apply. 

Application Materials: Each applicant 

must include a completed application 

and, if available, upload a resume. We 

request that all resumes include the 

following: 

• Title and current position 

• Professional affiliation 

• Home or business address 

• Telephone number 

• Email address 

• List of areas of expertise 

Applicants may also upload a cover 

letter and letters of endorsement or 

recommendation. Interested persons are
