Family membership
Health insurance provides insurance benefits not just to insured persons, but to their dependent family members. These family members are referred to as “dependents”. Family members must meet certain conditions related to the extent of “family relationship” and “income” before they are authorized as dependents.

At companies that use WAVE, you are required to add family members via the WAVE system.
