Scan Medical Insurance

NC Health Insurance laws and college?

I have to take a medical leave from college because of my depression--it has interfered with my progress to the point where I cannot pass. Does anyone know about health insurance laws in North Carolina? I am currently covered (and being treated) under my parents' insurance. If I take a medical withdrawal, will I be dropped from their insurance? We can't afford COBRA, so that's out of the picture. And if so, how does that make sense? If I had cancer and couldn't attend classes, would they drop me then, too? Any advice would be very helpful! Thanks!

  1. It depends on your age, and your parents' plan, but in most cases, assuming you're over 19, you'll be dropped. If you had cancer, I'm sure your parents would FIND A WAY to pay for COBRA for you. You'll have to find a way for COBRA now. It's not about passing, it's about being enrolled. So if you just stop attending, and not officially withdraw, then you can keep coverage until next September, when you'll have to enroll again. Cobra is cheaper than college.
