texas. wife is emt with local private ambulance co. she told boss today she is pregnant with our next child. outstanding! she was advised that when she is reduced to light-duty that she may not be working enough hours to qualify for health insurance provided through (blue-cross/blue shield). the insurance is provided in the following manner: my wife pays premium from her first paycheck each month and company reimburses her 75% of that paid our amount at next pay check. dropping a pregnant person months before birth, based on hours worked, seems like a scam or loophole and in bad faith at the least. i would like to research this. if necessary i can add her to my policy with my employer but at almost 3x the premium for comparable coverage. please give advice and maybe some resources for me to start researching or reference. myself-i am a juvenile probation officer and appreciate the advice and candor of you all. thanks.
