HEALTH INSURANCE AND DIVORCE IN TENNESSEE

Posted by Hannah Burdine | Nov 04, 2023 | 0 Comments

When facing divorce and concerned about health insurance coverage, it's important to know that during divorce proceedings, a spouse is required to maintain the other on their health insurance plan. Violating this can lead to legal consequences. After divorce, the dependent spouse may be eligible for continued coverage under the federal law COBRA for up to three years, albeit at a higher cost. This option ensures no gap in coverage, allowing time to find alternative insurance. However, COBRA isn't available for individuals aged 65 or older, as they can access Medicare.
