Bill Summary

Relative to dependent health insurance coverage for adults with disabilities. Financial Services.

AI Summary

This bill aims to ensure dependent health coverage for adults with disabilities. It amends existing laws to allow health insurance plans to cover adult dependents who are mentally or physically incapable of earning their own living due to a disability, regardless of their age. This change enables parents to continue providing health insurance coverage for their adult children with disabilities, even after the child reaches the typical age limit for dependent coverage.
