AI Summary

This bill expands guaranteed issuance of Medicare supplement policies, which are plans that help cover costs not covered by Original Medicare (Medicare Part A and Part B), for individuals whose existing Medicare supplement policy is involuntarily terminated or issued by an insolvent user, meaning an insurance company that has gone out of business.

This change is set to take effect on January 1, 2027.
