Local governments, school districts, and authorities that provide health insurance and other non-pension post-employment benefits (OPEB) to retirees are required by current governmental accounting standards to quantify and report the future cost of the benefits in their financial statements.

The requirement to report OPEB liabilities within government financial statements began with Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement 45.
