The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act extends health care coverage for young adult children under their parent's health plan up to the age of 26.
1 The requirement applies to medical plans that already offer dependent coverage. 2  While most plans include dependent coverage, it is not required. 3  Any eligible child can remain covered until age 26, even if the child is living away from home, is not a student or is working. The only limited exception is that grandfathered plans can exclude coverage for adult children until 2014 if the adult children are eligible to enroll in an employer-sponsored plan other than the plan of either parent. 2  The law does not require plans to cover adult childrenâs spouses or children in a COBRA status.
