Anyone know what criminal penalties there are for someone putting a spouse

on their group medical insurance without their knowledge or consent?

1. I doubt there are any

Even I didn't know my husband was on my dental until just recently. Seems it's automatic where I work, even if the spouse isn't under your medical.

2. If they forged your signature on the papers...

...then that's fraud.

Otherwise, as long as the details are correct, I don't think they've done anything wrong. It's a benefit, so it would be difficult to argue that you've suffered any harm by your spouse's (or their employer's) actions. Just like if someone shoved $20 in your pocket, it would be difficult to prosecute them for assault.

If, by adding you to the plan, they messed up your entitlement to other insurance benefits, you can probably take a civil action against them, and sue them for the value of the lost benefits.

3. This Is Interesting. I Wonder What Prompted Your Post

Do you, or someone you know, feel that they have been defrauded by a spouse who put them on their group medical insurance without their knowledge or consent?

What's up?

[Susang]

9. Was that before or after getting hit by a truck in a hit and run, and NOT

reporting it to the police?

So many stories!

[RB TexLa]

10. was what before that?

[KitchenWitch]

15. ...

:popcorn:

Perhaps seeking treatment at an ER after being hit by a truck with no insurance prompted this.

[RB TexLa]

21. I have insurance, what are you talking about?

[KitchenWitch]

28. Oh that's right, you just wanted to avoid reporting a crime to police.

And to let the perpetrator go free to do it again.

[RB TexLa]

29. What could that have to do with this thread?

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

17. Didn't think it had anything to do with her

I thought he said it just wasn't appropriate :shrug:

[greatauntoftriplets]

7. Why should this be actionable??????

Isn't it a good thing?

:shrug:

[gkdmaths]

8. oh, I was going to ask if you made par

[bobbieinok]

11. wouldn't adding a person to ins coverage increase premiums A LOT???

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

14. No clue. But I suggest you tell her

"I do not indemnify with you"

[KitchenWitch]

16. This looks to be interesting!

:hi:

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

18. It could only be better if it were a life insurance policy.

Even completely understandable. :D

[KitchenWitch]

19. LMAO!

:yourock:

[RB TexLa]

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

23. It isn't appropriate for me to post with you

[RB TexLa]

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

[RB TexLa]
