When your 19+ year old child graduates, leaves school or drops below "full time" student status (less than 8 units), the child loses eligibility for dependent coverage under the Health Plan. However, the child may be eligible for Continuation Coverage.

When your child ceases to be a full time student (is enrolled in less than 8 units), you must notify the Administrative Office within 60 days. You will become liable for any health claims paid by the Trust for any services after your dependent
ceases to be eligible. |

Continuation Coverage can continue for up to thirty-six months
provided timely payments are made. |
