Life changing events are marriage, birth, adoption, death, or change of coverage status for someone eligible for the plan. For example, if a spouse lost their job and their health coverage, or became eligible for other coverage through an employer, that would be a qualifying event. Moving could be a qualifying event on some coverage if you move outside of the coverage area of your current insurance provider.
