Legal Question in Insurance Law in California
Legal Definition
Is there a standard defition for:
''self-sustaining employment'' ?
Disabled dependent child will loss health coverage under parents plan because he now works 30 hours per week. But would be eligible if unable to obtain ''self-sustaining'' employment. Our agurement is that this min wage job is not ''self-sustaining'' and child is still over 50% dependent upon parents due to congenital disability.

Re: Legal Definition
Is the insurer trying to say that "self-sustaining" is a synonym for "full time" employment? The number of hours worked refers to the latter. The former refers to the ability to take care of oneself without assistance from any outside source. These are two different things.
