As reported in our last newsletter, the annual enrollment period for the daily meal per diem was the month of November.  Those who made that election are now covered under the meal per diem option for the calendar year 2025. 

The daily rate from June to November of 2024 was $61.95.  Due to the 0.5% increase in CPI between April and October of 2024, the daily meal per diem amount for those making that election will be $62.25 as of 12/1/24.  This amount will again be adjusted on June 1, 2025, to reflect the percentage change in CPI from October 2024 – April 2025.
