Update or Remove Dependents
If you or one of your dependents experience a qualifying life event, which affects your eligibility or your dependent's eligibility to receive health benefits under your health plan, it's your responsibility to provide written notice within 31 days of the event or change.
If you have an On Exchange Individual plan, please contact the Federal Facilitated Marketplace at 1-800-318-2596. If you have an Off Exchange Individual plan, simply complete a membership change form and mail it to: Health Plan of Nevada, P.O. Box 15645, Las Vegas, NV 89114-5645
