The employee’s current spouse is covering the children under his or her policy. Must the employer still enroll the employee’s children?
A17: If the employee provides the employer with proof that all persons required to be covered by insurance are covered, the employer does not need to enroll the children. The proof must be in the form of a policy statement or other official document from the insurance provider verifying the names of the children who are covered, and providing the plan name, plan type, policy number, effective date, and contact information. The employer must return the documentation to DOR with the Notice. If the employee does not provide proof that the children are enrolled in another plan, the employer must enroll the children in the company insurance plan. An employee can also contact DOR at 866-330-6752 and request the forms necessary to provide proof of alternate insurance coverage. Once DOR receives proof of alternate coverage, we will notify the employer to stop the insurance deduction.
