Temporary Continuation of Coverage under the FEHB Pamphlet RI 79-27

Who is covered under a TCC family enrollment?

For a former employee, a TCC family enrollment covers the same family members as were covered under the regular family enrollment. Family members must continue to meet the same eligibility requirements as under a regular family enrollment. A new family member, such as a new spouse or a newborn child, who is added during the TCC enrollment period is also covered as a family member.

For a child with a TCC family enrollment, his or her spouse and children are covered family members.

For former spouses, family members are limited to children of both the Federal employee and the former spouse. The new husband or wife of a remarried former spouse is not covered as a family member.
