The malpha6 correction to energy is expressed in terms of an effective Hamiltonian H(6) for an arbitrary state of helium. Numerical calculations are performed for n=2 levels, and the previous result for the 2  3P centroid is corrected. While the resulting theoretical predictions for the ionization energy are in moderate agreement with experimental values for 2  3S1, 2  3P, and 2  1S0 states, they are in significant disagreement for the singlet state 21P1.
