rights. Individuals who wish to obtain
the benefits provided under the statute
are required to provide plans notices in
the cases of divorce from the covered
employee, a dependent child’s ceasing
to be dependent under the terms of the
plan, and disability. Most plans will

writing. In cases where qualified
beneficiaries are short by an

to the plan, the regulations require the
plan to notify the qualified beneficiary
if the plan does not wish to treat the
tendered payment as full payment. If a
health care provider contacts a plan to
confirm coverage of a qualified
beneficiary, the regulations require that
the plan disclose the qualified
beneficiary’s complete rights to
coverage.

this existing regulation.
