What is open enrollment in health insurance?

Assuming you are referring to your company health plan, open enrollment is your annual opportunity to change your benefit selections. Passive Open Enrollment means your benefits remain the same, even if you do not make a selection. Active Open Enrollment means you MUST make a benefit selection, even if your selection is "no coverage". Due to government legislation in the United States, you cannot change your benefit selections outside of the open enrollment period unless you have a "Qualifying Life Event".


Why does health insurance have open enrollment periods?

In the United States, people purchase health insurance through their employer. Rather than collect 100 checks from 100 individuals, the health insurance companies collect one check from the employer. That makes book keeping a whole lot simpler. Sometimes husbands and wives have health insurance from different companies. One can lose his or her job. The one without a job purchases insurance from COBRA. Once a year the insurance company will have an open enrollment period when people in the company can add or subtract a husband, wife, or child. By having the period once a year, no one can add someone on during the year just before that person needs an operation. The open enrollment lets a person add a dependent but cuts down on abuse.


Can a husband cancel his wife's health insurance if not legally separated?

If not legally separated, you will probably have to wait until open enrollment through your employer to cancel her insurance. If you do get legally separated, you can cancel insurance as you have had "change in status." Usually insurance companies will process changes outside of open enrollment when you have a change in family status. An example of this would be getting married, having a baby, or getting divorced/legally separated.


Can you add your spouse to my Humana health plan?

I assume you have your insurance through your company. In this state there is a one month open enrollment period each year. At that point you are allowed to add a dependent. There will be a few months delay. If your spouse is a wife, it will not cover a current pregnancy. There will be an extra charge for the insurance. So, when they say, "Open Enrollment." Do not ignore it this time.


How do you switch to your spouse's health insurance?

If you and your spouse or partner are both eligible for employee health benefits, check out each company's health insurance options during open enrollment to see which may cost you less. But As you know very well that there are so many health insurance companies that are available. So it would be better if you first check and compare all the health insurance policies online.
