Sec. 7. Whenever a parent is required by a court or an administrative order to provide health coverage for a child and the parent is eligible for family health coverage through an insurer, the insurer: (1) shall permit the parent to enroll under the family coverage a child who is otherwise eligible for the coverage, without regard to any enrollment season restrictions; (2) shall enroll a child under the family coverage upon application by: (A) the child's custodial parent; (B) the office of Medicaid policy and planning; or (C) a Title IV-D agency; whenever a noncustodial parent who is enrolled fails to apply for coverage of the child; and (3) may not disenroll or eliminate coverage of a child who is otherwise eligible for coverage unless the insurer is provided satisfactory written evidence that: (A) the court order or an administrative order is no longer in effect; or (B) the child is or will be enrolled in comparable health coverage through another insurer that is to take effect not later than the effective date of the disenrollment.
