Your Divorce: What About Health Coverage?

When you find yourself seeking the services of a Plano family law attorney because you will be filing for divorce or your spouse has already filed a petition for divorce, you will no doubt ask your family law attorney the standard questions regarding division of property, child custody and child support, and how long it will take before the divorce is finalized. However, there are often considerations that people fail to consider when visiting for the first time with their family law attorney. For example, what will happen to your health insurance coverage?

A recent study has found that divorce can put the dependent spouse on the family’s insurance plan at risk for losing health insurance. In many cases, the research shows this is the woman in the relationship. According to the statistics gathered, over 110,000 women lose health coverage each year because of divorce. Issues such as health care coverage, gym memberships, and frequent flyer miles that have been earned are ones that do not immediately come up when you are first thinking about seeing a family law attorney, but these and items like them need to be treated as assets when it comes to the dividing up of community property.
