How long can a child be covered if he/she has disabilities?

Answer: 

If a child attains the limiting age for a Covered Dependent, coverage will not terminate while that child is, and continues to be, both:


  • Incapable of self-sustaining employment by reason of mental retardation or physical handicap; and
  • Chiefly dependent on the Subscriber for support and maintenance.
