Massachusetts state law’s definition of a dependent child differs from the Federal definition. However most Massachusetts medical insurance carriers amended their group medical plans issued in the state of Massachusetts to comply with the Federal definition of a dependent child. Therefore, the state of Massachusetts’ definition of a dependent child may not apply.

In addition to the federal and mass state laws all plan sponsors should also take into consideration “Michelle’s Law” prior to terminating coverage on a dependent child.

As with all contracts it is the plan sponsor’s responsibility to follow the terms of their own contracts.]]> http://www.bfpassociates.com/news-reader/items/dependent-medical-insurance.html Wed, 20 Oct 2010 04:26:00 -0400 http://www.bfpassociates.com/news-reader/items/dependent-medical-insurance.html
