1 Administrative Supplement II-D Continuation of Coverage for Overage Disabled Children Background Employees with enrolled disabled dependent children may continue coverage for these children beyond age 26 provided criteria are met under GIR Part II-C and carrier approval is obtained. The medical carrier will determine if the child is disabled at the time the application is made. Disabled children over 26 years of age who are approved for coverage under a medical plan are eligible for continued coverage under any other medical plan, the dental plan, the vision plan, the life plan, the AD&D plan and the group legal plan. If enrollment is transferred between medical or dental plans a new application is not required. Overage disabled children must have UC medical coverage in order to be enrolled in UC s dental, vision, legal, AD&D or life plans. Carriers may request periodic proof of disability. Coverage may continue under a plan as long as the child is continuously disabled, meets all other eligibility requirements listed above and the Employee is covered under the plan. Upon request, employees must provide verification of income tax dependency or verification of disabled dependent s eligibility for Social Security Income or Supplemental Security Income as a disabled person. Legal wards are not eligible to continue coverage beyond age 18, even if disabled. The following outlines the continuation of coverage process for disabled dependent children attaining age 26 (age-ins), for newly hired employees initial enrollment of overage disabled children, and the addition of newly eligible overage disabled children of existing employees. The attached charts summarize eligibility requirements as well as carrier procedures. Location, carrier, and employee responsibilities in the process also are included. 1
