____________________________________________________________________________________________________
WAIVER: I certify that I have been given the opportunity to apply for group health insurance and decline to enroll as indicated above, on behalf of myself, my spouse and my dependent child(ren). I understand that by signing this waiver, I, my spouse, and my dependent child(ren) forfeit the right to coverage. I was not pressured, forced or unfairly induced by my employer, the agent or the insurer(s) into waiving or declining the group health insurance. If in the future I apply for coverage, I, my spouse, or any of my dependent child(ren) may be treated as a late enrollee and subject to postponement or an exclusion of coverage for preexisting conditions for a period of up to 18 months. This period may be offset by the time I, my spouse or my dependent child(ren) was covered under a qualified health plan.
I understand that if I am declining enrollment for myself, my spouse, or my dependent child(ren) because of other health insurance coverage, including Medicaid, I may in the future be able to enroll myself, my spouse, or my dependent child(ren) in this plan, provided that I request enrollment within 30 days after my other health coverage ends or 60 days after Medicaid ends. In addition, if I gain a dependent spouse or child(ren) as a result of marriage, birth, adoption, or placement for adoption, I understand that I may be able to enroll myself, my spouse and my dependent child(ren), provided that I request enrollment within 30 days after the marriage, birth, adoption or placement for adoption. If I am declining enrollment for myself, my spouse or my dependent child(ren) because of coverage under Medicaid, I understand that if I, my spouse or my dependent child(ren) become eligible for group health plan premium assistance under Medicaid, I may be able to enroll myself, my spouse or my dependent child(ren), provided I request enrollment within 60 days of initial eligibility for the premium assistance. I understand that I can obtain enrollment information from my employer or small employer group health insurance carrier.
