Bill Summary
For legislation to provide health insurance coverage to the surviving children of police officers and firefighters killed in the line of duty. Public Service.
AI Summary
This bill amends two sections of Chapter 32B of the Massachusetts General Laws to provide health insurance coverage to the surviving children of police officers and firefighters killed in the line of duty, even if the surviving spouse remarries or passes away. The key provisions allow dependents, defined as children under the age of 19, to continue their health insurance coverage regardless of the status of the surviving spouse. This ensures that the children of these public service workers are able to maintain their health insurance even after the loss of their parent.
