What changes does health care reform require for dependent coverage?
If you provide dependent coverage, effective with this plan renewal, you must offer coverage to dependents up to 26 years of age, regardless of marital or student status. However, a dependent that is eligible for health coverage through his or her employer should enroll in their own employer’s plan.
