Fix FEDVIP Age Act
This bill amends the Federal Employees' Dental and Vision Insurance Program (FEDVIP) to extend dependent coverage eligibility. It changes the age limit from 22 to 26 for children of federal employees, meaning dependent children can now remain covered under FEDVIP until their 26th birthday. The change directly affects dependent children of federal employees who previously lost coverage at age 22, aligning FEDVIP with similar provisions in the Affordable Care Act for private plans. The provision modifies Section 8901(5) of Title 5, U.S. Code, to update the age requirement.
