ERISA permits a parent to obtain a court order to provide coverage for children under the noncustodial parent’s health plan (called a qualified medical child support order).
ERISA Disclosure Provisions help to ensure that individuals covered by group health plans receive clear information about their rights, benefits, and obligations under the plan, including information about COBRA continuation coverage, access to urgent or specialized care, and composition of physician and other provider networks.
HIPAA includes protections for newborns and adopted children with preexisting conditions. Specifically, HIPAA does not permit a preexisting condition exclusion to be applied to a newborn or adopted child who enrolls within 30 days of birth or adoption.

Generally, you must report as income any amount you receive for your disability through an accident or health insurance plan paid for by your employer.
If both you and your employer have paid the premiums for the plan, only the amount you receive for your disability that is due to your employer's payments is reported as income. If you pay the entire cost of a health or accident insurance plan, do not include any amounts you receive for your disability as income on your tax return. If you pay the premiums of a health or accident insurance plan through a cafeteria plan, and the amount of the premium was not included as taxable income to you; the premiums are considered paid by your employer, and the disability benefits are fully taxable.
