GEHA is a Lee’s Summit, Missouri-based nonprofit company that sells coverage all around the country to federal employees, through the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program and related programs. Some of the 2 million federal employees, retirees and dependents it serves live in the Kansas City, Missouri, area.

GEHA will sponsor a gathering point, the Drum Deck, at the Chiefs’ stadium, and it will sponsor a digital content series that shows the Chiefs’ pre-season preparations, GEHA says.

Patrick Mahomes, the Chiefs’ quarterback, will have an Official Brand Partner relationship with GEHA, GEHA says. Mahomes will make appearances on behalf of GEHA at community events, and he will appear in television, digital and print ads for GEHA.
