Health Insurance And Your Children

[smithaaren]

One part of the new law that is helpful is the ability for children to stay on their parents' plan until they are 26 years old. Before this law took effect when a child turned 18 years old they had to leave the policy if they did not enroll in college. If they were in college they could typically stay on as dependents until the age of 26. But even then as soon as they were not a full time student, the insurance company forced them to find a new policy.aqua lung
