Had a new situation come up today - 25 year old whose daughter was born two weeks ago. He is currently covered under his parents' group health insurance, so they can't add the baby to that policy and wants to buy individual coverage. I was told by both the federal and DC marketplaces that the coverage would not be effective until June 1 rather than being retroactive to the date of birth. The DC marketplace told me the baby should be covered under the mother's policy for one month from the date of birth (which I'm pretty sure is incorrect), but even in that scenario if a baby is born after the 15th of the month, there will always be a coverage gap. Anyone else come across this problem yet?
