SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

Medicare supplement policies for individuals under age 65. Requires insurers issuing Medicare supplement policies in the Commonwealth to make standardized Medicare Supplement Plans A and C available to any Medicare enrollee under 65 years of age who is eligible for Medicare due to disability or end-stage renal disease. A Medicare supplement policy issued to such an individual may not exclude benefits based on a preexisting condition if the individual has a continuous period of creditable coverage of at least six months as of the date of application for coverage. The enrollment period for an individual is the six-month period following the month the individual became eligible for Medicare or during the 63-day period following termination of coverage under a group health insurance policy.
