AI Summary

This bill seeks to ensure that dependent health coverage is available for adults with disabilities, even if they are above the typical age limit for dependent coverage. The bill amends sections of the General Laws related to health insurance to allow for dependent coverage to continue for adults with mental or physical disabilities that prevent them from earning their own living. This expands the existing dependent coverage provisions, which typically have age limits, to provide continued coverage for adults with disabilities.
