Family Plus Health Care Act of 2024

The Family Plus Health Care Act of 2024 requires health insurance plans that cover children to extend coverage to the child's parent, if the parent is not enrolled in Medicare or Medicaid. This applies to parents of children under age 27 who lack government health coverage. The bill also modifies tax rules to allow the cost of health insurance for such parents to be excluded from taxable income and included in self-employed health insurance deductions. These changes aim to expand health coverage access for parents without government benefits while providing tax relief for related expenses.
