Q: Can my ex enroll daughter under his insurance without letting me know?
My ex recently enrolled my daughter under his new insurance through MNSure without letting me know or speaking to me about it. We have joint custody. I would have liked her to be under my insurance instead, if it’s more beneficial and a better rate. He does not provide me a copy and won’t add me as an authorized representative for her. I would have liked that he talked to me about enrolling her under his new insurance first, which he keeps my name off of things that has to do with my daughter on his part and puts his girlfriend as the emergency contact.
A: Re: health Ins for your daughter, it depends upon what your Judgment and Decree says re: that issue. If it is silent concerning the health ins(which I doubt)then you will need to either amend the JD to cover that issue re: an agreement with your X and absent an agreement, with a court hearing re: the same. In any event, you absolutely should be the person to be contacted in case of an emergency and not his girlfriend and you also should be able to contact the Ins co and be able to give and receive information from the Ins co.
