Bill Summary

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

AI Summary

This bill aims to ensure that adults with disabilities who are dependents of their parents can continue to be covered under their parents' health insurance plans, regardless of their age. It does this by amending sections of Massachusetts state law to remove the age limit for dependent health coverage, as long as the dependent is mentally or physically incapable of earning their own living due to a disability. The bill provides legal clarification and protection for the continued health insurance coverage of adult dependents with disabilities.
