Participating in a Medical Plan

Qualified Medical Child Support Order

A qualified medical child support order (QMCSO) is a legal judgment, decree or order issued under a state domestic relations law by a court or an administrator. A QMCSO recognizes the rights of a child to coverage for health care benefits. Under a qualified child support order, the court can require you to provide coverage to a child under this plan.

You will be notified if any of your children are affected by a QMCSO. You may call the Benefits Office at 773-702-9634 for information regarding the procedures governing QMCSOs.
