• Your lawful spouse who lives in the coverage area
• Dependent children who live in the coverage area are covered up to age 26. Dependent children who have reached age 26 can continue to be covered up to the end of the calendar year in which they reach age 30 provided the child does not have a dependent of their own, is a Florida state resident and is not covered under a plan of their own or entitled to benefits under Title XVIII of the Social Security Act. Cigna may require such proof at least once each year until the end of the calendar year in which he/she attains age 30

• Dependent children, regardless of age who are enrolled prior to age 26 and are incapable of self-support due to a medically certified continuing intellectual or physical disability and are chiefly dependent upon the Insured for support and maintenance.

Coverage for a newborn dependent child enrolled within 61 days of birth will be retroactive to the date of the child’s birth
