Pennsylvania HB261 amends insurance laws to ensure dependents with intellectual or physical disabilities retain coverage until age 19.
Pennsylvania HB261 amends the Insurance Company Law of 1921 to modify conditions for issuing casualty insurance policies and group accident and sickness insurance. It ensures that dependents with intellectual or physical disabilities retain coverage until they turn 19, provided the policyholder submits proof of the dependent's incapacity within 31 days of the dependent's 19th birthday. The bill also updates the definition of "community health reinvestment activity" to include programs for the prevention and treatment of intellectual disabilities and mental disorders.
