Ohio HB24 amends the state insurance code to provide Medigap policies for Medicare-eligible individuals under 65. The bill requires insurers to offer the same coverage to individuals under 65 who are eligible for Medicare due to disability or end-stage renal disease. It mandates open enrollment periods and prohibits insurers from charging higher premiums to younger individuals. The bill also establishes standards for policy provisions, including terms of renewability, initial and subsequent conditions of eligibility, and nonduplication of coverage.
