No, it does require at 100% though. Insurance Companies generally require that an employer cover at least 75% of the employees. Those covered under other spousal plans don't count in the calculation.

How long does it get to get health insurance?

How long does it take to get health insurance? It depends. Are you talking about health insurance that is offered through an employer? If so, some employers require their employees to satisfy a waiting period before they are allowed to enroll for benefits. Most employers don't have a waiting period though. Ask your employer's human resources department for information. And, as with any product, read your insurance brochures and don't be afraid to call their customer service department for help or if you have questions.


Should you purchase term life insurance in addition to life insurance offered by your employer?

Keep in mind that usually life insurance through your employer does not leave with you when you leave work. So if it is 10 years and you decide to leave, you will at that time have to get your own individual life insurance. Now you are 10 years older and your height and weight could be different and you could have medical conditions. Yes, it is a good idea to get life insurance in addition to your work insurance. This way you will be covered at a younger age.


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.
