Do we have to provide notice to children under age 26 who will be eligible to enroll for coverage for the upcoming plan year?
A715. Yes. Plans must provide written notice to children whose coverage ended, or who were not eligible for coverage before they turned age 26, that they are now eligible to enroll. This notice may be provided to an employee on behalf of the employee’s child and may be included with other enrollment materials that a plan distributes to employees, as long as the statement is prominent.
