Doesn't "dependent" mean someone that lives with you that you're supporting? This person has trouble working due to health problems but is not on SSDI? I don't know the details of specific insurance plans. You may or may not be able to keep them on your insurance, I don't know. Search the web, you might find an answer. The Blue Cross site may have an answer.

You have to have it documented by a doctor though. To continue to get my dental and vision again, my doctor has to write them a letter stating my disability.

Difference contracts can have different provisions. Best to call the BC/BS customer service to find out. But remember, even then you can get bad information. Keep asking until you finds a customer service rep who researches the provisions carefully.
Good luck! I hope you can stay covered. |

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
