Bill overview
This bill modifies Michigan’s insurance laws to align with the Affordable Care Act (ACA). It ensures that health insurers offer dependent coverage for children up to age 26, guarantees the same benefits for dependent children as other covered dependents, and prohibits lifetime or annual limits on essential health benefits. The bill also expands coverage requirements for certain health services, such as mental health and preventive care, and prohibits insurers from denying coverage based on pre-existing conditions, with some exceptions.
