The answer is yes, but with a few big ifs. Ohio law does not require health insurers or employers to offer what is called "domestic partner" coverage. The employer can choose to offer it, and to set rules about who qualifies as a domestic partner.

A casual dating situation will not likely allow you to add her. But if you have a serious relationship and are able to show some evidence of that -- such as a joint lease, shared mortgage, etc. -- then you might be able to add her.

If your employer does not offer coverage to domestic partners, then you could buy insurance for her separately.

Just got a new car but you want your girlfriend to put the insurance in her name?

If you just bought a Car, You need to put the insurance in "Your" Name. If you want your girlfriend to be a covered driver you can add her to the policy as an addiitional driver. Putting the insurance in your girlfriends name provides coverage for your girlfriend but would not provide insurance for yourself. If you want to put the insurance in your girlfriends name just because you think it''s cheaper and you know you will be driving, Then this would constitute misrepresentaion of the risk, AKA "Insurance Fraud" and the Insurance company woudl have no obligation to pay for an accident that you have.
