If you don’t pay for your health insurance – and your kids – both your coverages will be cancelled.
As soon as your employer terminates you, your health insurance cancels, unless you pay for it yourself, through cobra. Even though you’re on Workers Comp, that only covers the work related injury. It does NOT keep paying for your benefits.
