Q. Jillian M. of Kentucky asks: "What's the Difference Between a QMCSO and a NMSN?"
A. Spencer, from the
QDRO
Department of Pension Evaluators & QDROS Of Troyan, Inc Associates
Group writes: "While both a Qualified Medical Child Support Order (QMCSO) and a qualified
National Medical Support Notice (NMSN) provide health coverage for children
through a group health plan, the process in reaching this objective differs.
A medical child support order is a court order. It must be signed by a
judge before being submitted for qualification as a QMCSO. The NMSN process,
on the other hand, primarily involves a state child support enforcement
agency representing the interests of the children and submitting the notice
for qualification."
