Q.- Are we required to send a COBRA Initial Rights Notice to a dependent who gets added to an employee's coverage after the employee has already been enrolled and has received the notice?

A.- Another COBRA initial rights notice only has to be provided when the newly added dependent is a spouse. It does not have to be provided when a child is later added to coverage.
