Hello everyone, I have a question about divorce and health insurance. A family member just finalized divorce in NY state. They have Emblem Health City of NY plan. The divorce took over two years and they live in separate residences . Presently, the plan is still active for the family of 3 children and both spouses on the plan (husbands plan). Crazy to say, but now the wife just got pregnant again. Both spouses don’t want to marry again at this time. Is there an option for “Domestic Partnership” under the same plan now that they are divorced? Also, under “domestic Partnership” must they live in the same house? Do their driver licenses must show same address? Do they have to submit mail from same address?

Some people even advised them that they can keep the insurance policy they currently have, and don’t inform the insurance company about the divorce. Thoughts on this.

If anybody can give information about the above questions, it would be greatly appreciated

Thank you
