1. You can't force him.
2. Can't sue your husband for failing to provide benefits unless there is a court order in place. hand him the bill
3. Why did he not put you on? I would take this as a sign of things to come....
4. No you can't sue your husband because he did not add you on his health plan, he did the right thing by adding your daughter on the plan so lose the he is a dog of a husband attitude. Maybe there is more than meets the eye in your marriage, He is not a dog for stepping up and being a good dad for adding his daughter on his plan
5. I'm confused. Are you married? Divorced? Separated? If you're married, I'd have a serious talk with the guy. If you're divorced or separated, there's no way he'll put you on his insurance unless he's ordered to...
6. Hire a lawyer and start divorce proceedings.
7. Guess he didn't figure you were worth it. Well, he didn't, and that's that.
8. Hard cheese! You cannot sue him for that! It's up to YOU to take care of your health plan. But you can hold him responsible for his daughters health expenses. Just a couple of spelling and grammar points: It's 'himself' not 'his self', and 'our' daughter, not 'are' daughter! I point that out in the nicest way, with the best of motives. Anyone you approach with your problem will be much more inclined to listen to you if you use the right English.
9. Assuming you are still married and living together (separation can make this trickier), he doesn't have to put you on the insurance, however, he is very probably on the hook for half of your medical bills.
10. If you want to be able to boss him around you will need to re-marry him. He is not responsible for you. It is nice, but expected of him to cover his daughter. Try and manage the child support money. Insurance companies are not going to allow unmarried people to be put on their insurance. If you are married by the way you need to end it on paper as it is already over.
11. If you are still married and living with your husband there really isn't much you can do to force his hand. Obviously, he has chosen to exclude you because he gets a better deal, especially if you have pre-existing conditions. If you are estranged or seperated, you can file for a legal seperation or divorce and request he provide you coverage temporarily, but even then, it may not be granted. Bottom line, your husband is a cad...at least he didn't neglect his daughter.
12. If you are married and living with him then what he did should go a long way to telling you how much he values you as a wife and mother of his daughter. Yes I agree with you, he is a dog.
13. Punish him.
