How to keep Health insurance from being cut because of low hours?

l.miller008 asked:


My sister is 6 months pregnant and just found out from her work today that her health care insurance is going to be cancelled this week because she is not making enough hours for her to keep her coverage. Is there anyway around this? Or any suggestions? She is married but her husband cannot add her to his coverage until enrollment period which is after her due date. He also makes to much to have medicade.

    Since her losing the insurance is due to a drop in hours, this is a qualifying event which will enable her to be added to her husband’s insurance before open enrollment. Since pregnancy cannot be counted as a pre-existing condition, she will have the insurance she needs for her pregnancy and delivery. Her husband should check with his HR to see how they coordinate this.

    Good luck!
