appropriate persons, which is necessary
for the enrollment of the child in
employment-related health care
coverage, such as the employee/
obligor’s name, address, and Social
Security Number; the employer’s name
and address; the name and address of
the alternate recipient (child); and the
custodial parent’s name and address.
The employer forwards the second part
of the NMSN to the group health plan
administrator, which contains the same
individual identifying information. The
plan administrator requires this
information to determine whether to
enroll the alternate recipient in the
group health plan. If necessary, the
employer also initiates withholding
from the employee’s wages for the
purpose of paying premiums to the
group health plan for enrollment of the
child.
Respondents: State and Territory
