Of course, otherwise what would be the medical coverage for adopted children. If that person has no custody of the child, then probably not. That would be similar to a man and woman not married living together and one of them attempting to get coverage for the other.

What is the meaning of the term excess in a general liability insurance policy?
An excess insurance policy is one, the coverage of which, sits "atop" the primary policy. That is, the excess policy provides additional indemnity benefits if or when the primary policy limits are exhausted. In general, the primary insurer has a duty to settle a claim within its policy limits if it is possible to do so so as not to subject the excess policy to exposure. Normally, the excess insurer will track the underlying litigation to ensure that this is done. It may have a cause of action against the primary insurer if the primary insurer does not do this and the excess insurer is called upon to pay the claimant.

Can payment of medical benefits be coordinated between an individual medical insurance plan and a group medical insurance plan covering the same person?
Its possible but unlikely. If one policy is direct pay then both should pay as prime and essentially ignore one another.Clarification:It would be considered insurance fraud to not notify each insurance company of your coverage with the other. Otherwise, you would actually be making a profit from both insurers paying the full amount they would pay if you only had coverage with one company, which is illegal and would result in serious consequences.When a person is covered under two medical insurance policies, one is considered the primary insurer, while the other is considered the secondary insurer. Typically, the primary insurance policy will pay their percentage, then the secondary will pay the balance. But you still have to meet your deductibles for both insurers, as well as paying your co-pay amount.You need to contact both insurance companies to determine which one is your primary coverage, which will be determined by several factors, depending on your status, such as married, dependent, etc.
