I'd imagine sworn affidavits would come into play by others (neighbors, family) re: common law.
If all else fails, if Ins Co finds out they're not married, they could always go after them for insurance fraud.
I'd imagine the instances of fraud are low enough in situations like this that it's more efficient to go case by case than to do background checks on every couple.
I'd also imagine that HR departments and other middle men are held to some responsibility as well.

Exactly what I would have thought. But in this case the insurance company is going after EVERY couple.
Today I had to make a copy of our marriage certificate and provide a copy our joint tax return. I stress the word 'and' not 'or.' They demand both.
Their explanation is 'to hold down costs'. If you can read between the lines it means 'stopping fraud.'
This company does not insure the general public. Only employees of the hospital and apparently some people are lying about their spouses and children.
