Dependent Child Coverage To Age 25
Missouri Governor Matt Blunt signed Missouri
House Bill No. 818 into law in 2007. One of the requirements on
the law applies to dependent children coverage.
Effective June 22, 2008, medical and dental coverage
on dependent children can be continued up to age 25, regardless
of student status. To be eligible under the new law, the child
must be unmarried, reside in Missouri, and not be covered under
another plan.
Employees wishing to add dependent children as
a result of the law must do so during open enrollment unless currently
enrolled.
