When people are about to go through a
divorce, they have a plethora of questions on their minds. These questions may
include: How long will the process take? Who will get
custody of the kids? How will property be divided? Another question people may
wonder about is whether or not they can stay on their exes’ health
insurance once their divorces are final. If you are wondering about this
question in particular, you should know that in most cases, you will not
be able to remain on your ex’s health insurance. This is due to regulations
by the insurance industry.
However, your children can remain covered by your ex’s health insurance.
If you are about to go through a divorce, you’ll want to seek your
own private health insurance as soon as possible. Or, if your employer
offers coverage, you will want to apply so you are covered in the event
of illness or a medical emergency. If you are unemployed, you can apply
for COBRA, but this coverage only lasts 36 months so you’ll need to
decide what you will do once the time lapses. Have additional questions
about what will happen after your divorce?
