¿Cómo obtengo cobertura para un niño recién adoptado?

Question

Accepted Answer

If you’re adding an adopted child to coverage you get through work, you must notify your employer, provide documentation if needed, and complete the proper form.&nbsp; If you need to change your coverage type (from Individual to Family, for instance), you must notify us within 60 days. (Note: Some employers require you to notify them within 60 days. Check your Member Guide for details.) If you bought your own health plan and you’re adding an adopted child to your plan: Go to the member portal&nbsp;Click Manage Plan in the menuClick Manage Changes to this Plan&nbsp;&nbsp;Choose: Change your benefits or add a person to your plan because of a qualifying life event If you bought a plan on healthcare.gov, you must go there to complete any needed forms. For the adopted child to be covered from the date of placement in the home, submit the needed forms as soon as possible.&nbsp;
