(a) Type of enrollment. A former spouse who meets the requirements of Sec. 890.803 may elect coverage for self only or for self and family. A family enrollment covers only the former spouse and any child of both the former spouse and the employee, former employee or employee annuitant, provided such child is not otherwise covered by a health plan under this part. A child must be under age 26 or incapable of self-support because of a mental or physical disability existing before age 26. No person may be covered by two enrollments.
(b) A child is considered to be the child of the former spouse or the employee, former employee, or employee annuitant if he or she is--
(1) A natural child; or
(2) An adopted child.
(c) Child incapable of self-support. When a former spouse enrolls for a family enrollment which includes a child who has become 26 years of age and is incapable of self-support, the employing office shall determine such child's eligibility in accordance with Sec. 890.302(c), (d), and (e).
