An Act to ensure dependent health coverage for adults with disabilities
This Massachusetts bill expands health insurance coverage for adult children with disabilities, allowing them to remain on their parents' health plans regardless of age. The law modifies three specific sections of state statutes to remove age limits for dependents who are mentally or physically unable to earn a living due to a disability. By amending the General Laws, the bill ensures that eligible adults can continue receiving family-based health coverage even after they turn 26.
