They can choose not to provide coverage for a spouse.
US law states employers have to provide insurance for employee's children under the age of 26, but does not say anything about spouses, so they can choose to stop covering employee's spouses.

Can you receive financial compensation from your employer if you do not take your employer's health insurance?
Yes. A company may offer a credit if you decline insurance as long as you have other coverage. If you dont have other coverage you can't opt out of insurance if offered by your company
Is the insurance company required to notify you if your employer cancels the company policy thereby cancelling the employee coverage?
No. The Employer must notify you.
Can your employer's health insurance require your husband to take his employer's health insurance if his is not free and not as good as yours?
My employer requires that my husband participate in his company's health insurance or they will drop him from their insurance. Insurance is a choice offered as a benefit by the employer because the employer is paying a portion of the cost to be insured. You do not have to participate if you don't want to. Also, the question being answered is that can an employer force an employee's spouse to take coverage offered elsewhere: NO. If a company offers a family health plan, they CANNOT specify that a spouse take other insurance if available. They CAN require that if you are declining coverage from them (your own employer), that you show you have coverage elsewhere.
What proof do you need to be a domestic partner on someone's health insurance?
This is determined by the employer who is paying the premiums for coverage. If there is a local domestic partnership registry available, then the requirement is usually a certificate of registration of domestic partnership. Otherwise, the requirement can be merely a notarized affidavit of domestic partnership in a format prescribed by the employer. Assuming the policy that has been purchased by the employer offers domestic partner coverage, then the insurance company will provide coverage to anyone that the employer says is the worker's domestic partner. The insurance company will then charge the employer more for that worker's coverage.
Can your employer insist that you carry full coverage auto insurance?
If your vehicle is being used for company/business purposes, yes.
Can I live in another state from my employer for health insurance?
Yes. Depends on company rules and if it's HMO or PPO coverage.
If you change jobs will the new insurance company cover a dependent's cancer treatments assuming the new employer provides sufficient coverage?

When your company offers health insurance are you required by law to have health coverage to work Do you have to opt in?
If you are required by law to carry insurance, you can either have it through the employer or provide your own. They cannot legally force you to opt in to their coverage.
Can your employer ask for your vehicle insurance to drive their vehicle?
Your personal auto coverage will not cover their vehicles. What they are probably asking for is to make sure you have coverage in case you drive your vehicle on errands or such for the company. If you go to the post office to get the company mail your personal auto insurance will be the primary insurance and then if they have an endorsement to their insurance called "hired and non-owned auto" it will provide secondary coverage over and above your coverage to protect them in case of an accident. Their coverage insists that you as the employee have primary insurance on your vehicle. Also note that the company insurance will not pay for damage to your vehicle.
What is the definition of private health insurance coverage?
Private health insurance is an alternative to government issued health insurance. It can be provided through a union or employer or one can purchase it from a private health insurance company.
Can my wife's insurance force me to buy insurance from my employer?
No, they can't force you to buy it from your job. You can buy your health insurance wherever you want too. That's between you and the insurance company you choose to purchase coverage from.
Can anything be claimed after paying supplemental life insurance for nine years and and you've just been made unemployed?
If the life insurance was provided through an employer group policy, the coverage usually terminates when your employment is terminated. Some insurance policies through employer groups could include a portability feature, meaning that you can continue the coverage by paying (sometimes a higher) premium, directly to the insurance company, not to your former employer.
