I guess there aren't any laws that control the use of PTO except in a few states e.g. California. It's probably regulated by the company policies. So, all you can do now is to go through your employment terms and conditions. If the conditions state that your health insurance stands cancelled when you don't fullfill 30 hours week, then you may simply leave it to your employer to decide.
