Can you get health insurance for a dependent that doesn't reside with you


Can you get health insurance for a dependent that doesn't reside with you?
I have a four yr old son that I've had health insurance for since he's been born. Me and his mother don't leave together and now my job has a new insurance and there trying to cancel him bc I don't have proof besides my name being on his birth certificate. I help his mom pay for aftercare but of course it's in his mom names bc we leave in different states. Is there a law that if my child doesn't leave with me I can't provide health insurance.

Medical insurance companies have a rule fore every situation but living in different States can be a problem well its not really ..but they will use any excuse

I live in illinois and of course u can here! In fact i demand it of his father, and to be honest, his father would not have it any other way. I pay for my own insurance and if i had to pay for my son, it would break my bank. My ex has excellent insurance so of course it was the smartest choice. Your the childs father, u should be able to provide. If not then maybe u need to move to the state u had a child in. Sounds harsh, but thats how it is.

Um..my ex is required to provide medical insurance for our daughter, through the courts, and he lives 500 miles away..4 states. It is allowed..and happens all the time. Just because a child does not live with a parent does not mean they are not still responsible for the child. If I were you I would fight this. Good luck Belle

It is very common for a parent to provide insurance for a child that does not reside with that parent. You may need to talk to someone higher up in the chain than the low level person you have been talking to. Perhaps the court order requiring you to provide health insurance will satisfy them.
