It’s up to you to understand who you can cover under your medical, dental, vision, and other benefits. Be sure to review the information below before you enroll in coverage.
For certain benefits, you may also enroll your eligible family members.
Eligible family members include:
- Your spouse or partner. If you cover a partner, you may be subject to imputed income adjustments to comply with IRS tax rules. Note: If you’re divorced and have a divorce decree that requires you to provide coverage for your ex spouse, that person is not eligible to be covered through the RELX plans.
- For medical, dental and vision coverage, you may cover your own and/or your spouse or partner’s children up to age 26. Coverage is offered regardless of their student, mental or employment status; regardless of whether the employee’s home is their principal residence; and regardless of whether they have coverage available through their own employer. Note: If you have adult children under the age of 26 who previously aged out of these plans, you can enroll them during Annual Enrollment. If they’re currently enrolled in COBRA for dental or vision, be sure to cancel that coverage as of January 1, 2026.
- For accident, critical illness, and hospital indemnity insurance, you may cover your own and/or your spouse or partner’s children up to age 26. Coverage is offered regardless of their student, mental or employment status; regardless of whether the employee’s home is their principal residence; and regardless of whether they have coverage available through their own employer.
- For all other coverage, you may cover your own and/or your spouse or partner’s unmarried dependent children up until the end of the month they turn age 19 or 23 if a full-time student.
- Your own and/or your spouse or partner’s unmarried children of any age who are primarily supported by you and incapable of self-support because of a mental or physical disability that began before age 26. You must provide the appropriate carrier proof of the disability within 30 days of enrolling the child as a disabled dependent (note this does not apply to all plans).
