What immediate insurance reforms must be made to “grandfathered” health plans?
These plans must comply with all the above noted components, with the exception of preventive health services. Additionally, annual limits on essential benefits and the prohibition of pre-existing exclusions for individuals under 19 do not apply to individual “grandfathered” plans. The requirement to offer coverage to dependents up to age 26 in group grandfathered plans is limited to dependents that are not eligible for their employer’s health plan.
