Health care has been the topic of discussion for months now, and I know everyone is going back and forth on how it might effect them. Without even thinking about the health care reform, I ran into an issue of no health care when I got laid-off from my job. I remember being in college and being able to receive health insurance from my parents jobs, but understood that I had reached the end of the qualifications for being able to stay on my dad's plan. I soon found out that I was not alone. Young adults age 19 through 29 are the largest growing age group in the country at risk of being uninsured. How the new health care reform might change these stats were sent to me today, and gave me a little hope for the future of this age group regarding health.
Under the Health Insurance Consumer Protections, the security you get from health insurance reform, will extend coverage for young adults."Children would continue to be eligible for family coverage through the age of 26." It will also be extended to adults not enrolled in college full-time. They must be unmarried, and not have any dependents themselves.
So, if you were wondering how the health care reform could help you or the future generation, there you go. I am confident that many of my readers would sigh with relief if that law was put into place. Pass this information on to help people become aware of benefits they could receive from the passing of health care reform.

Aaaah!! Does this mean I can quit my BS job that I work just for insurance? LOL
Lol! As soon as they pass this supid bill lol. If that ever happens?
I wish they pass this a couple of years ago because people between the ages of 19-29 are in the transitional stage where we trying to find jobs and go to school that having a job is a hinderance. Anyways, this is a great idea it help those that are unable to get health insurance on their own.
It is good for those that may get laid off or can't find jobs on their own. It is also good for future generations. It might not effect a lot of us in that age range now.
It is an ideal solution for seniors, seniors in good health that requires little or no help with the tasks of daily life. Caring for elderly parents at home offers peace and security that can not exist in another solution for the elderly. Surrounded by well-known photographs and memories, Mom or Dad can live their last years surrounded by people and things they love.

Extending health insurance benefits to young adults will make it more attractive for parents to avail of these packages. There should also be a package that covers kids below ten.

Young adults aged 19 through 29 are old enough to work and pay for their own health insurance. I think we should not spoil them by giving them this benefits that they have the capability to afford if they want.
I also agree that young adults from 19 through 29 should work for their own health insurance. The only job of the parents is to inspire them to get good coverage for themselves.
Good thing you shared this update. We have to be aware of this, especially if we're still on our parents' health insurance plan.
