Changes to the age dependents can stay on parent’s medical or dental policy

The State of Ohio recently passed House Bill 201 which lowers the age dependents can stay on a parent’s health care plan. Current dependent maximum age is 28. The new age limit is 26. This means those dependents age 26 or older cannot stay covered on a parent’s policy. The law will take effect on ACA plans that renew on or after January 1, 2016.
