99 Adding a Child due to Award of Legal Custody or Guardianship If you or your spouse is awarded legal custody or guardianship for a child, an application must be submitted within 31 days of the date legal custody or guardianship is awarded by the court. Coverage will be effective on the date the court granted legal c ustody or guardianship. Qualified Medical Child Support Order If you are required by a qualified medical child support order or court order, as defined by ERISA and/or applicable state or federal law, to enroll your child in this Plan, we will permit the child to enroll at any time without regard to any Open Enrollme nt limits and will provide the benefits of this Plan according to the applicable requirements of such order. However, a child's coverage will not extend beyond any Dependent Age Limit listed in the Schedule of Benefits. Updating Coverage and/or Removing Dependents You are required to notify the Employer of any changes that affect your eligibility or the eligibility of your Dependents for this Plan. When any of the following occurs, contact the Employer and complete the appropriate forms: • Changes in address; • Marriage or divorce; • Death of an enrolled family member (a different type of coverage may be necessary); • Enrollment in another health plan or in Medicare; • Eligibility for Medicare; • Dependent child reaching the Dependent Age Limit (see “ Termination and Continuation of Coverage ”); • Enrolled Dependent child either becomes totally or permanently disabled, or is no longer disabled. Failure to notify the Employer of individuals no longer eligible for services will not obligate the Plan to cover such services, even if Fees are received for those individuals. All notifications must be in writing and on approved forms. Nondiscrimination No person who is eligible to enroll will be refused enrollment based on health status, health care needs, genetic information, previous medical information, disability, sexual orientation or identity, gender, or age. Statements and Forms All Members must complete and submit applications or other forms or statements that the Employer may reasonably request. Any rights to benefits under this Plan are subject to the condition that all such information is true, correct, and complete. Any material misrepresentation by you may result in termination of coverage as provided in the " Termination and Continuation of Coverage " section. The Plan will not use a statement made by you to void your coverage after that coverage has been in effect for two years. This does not apply, however, to fraudulent misstatements.
