A 9270 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Extends dependent child coverage for certain individuals to age twenty-nine

This bill extends health insurance coverage for certain young adults in New York. It allows unmarried individuals aged 26 to 29 to remain on their parents' health insurance plans if they: (1) are not eligible for employer-sponsored health coverage, (2) are not enrolled in Medicare, and (3) live, work, or reside in New York State. The change applies to standard health insurance policies covering hospital, medical, surgical, and prescription drug expenses. It specifically targets young adults who would otherwise lose coverage at age 26 but meet these criteria, expanding existing coverage beyond the previous 26-year limit for this group.
