ACA WILL GIVE SAME SEX FAMILIES FEDERAL HEALTH PROTECTIONS



Washington, D.C.-- The Obama administration is giving a new health benefit to same-sex partners — and it's built on one of the most popular provisions of ‘Obamacare.’ On Friday, the administration published a proposed rule that would extend one of the health care law's best-known provisions — allowing children to stay on their parents' health plans until age 26 — to same-sex partners of federal workers. 


The rule would extend eligibility in the Federal Employee Health Benefits Program to the children of an enrollee's same-sex partner. It also would extend coverage in the federal employees' dental and vision insurance programs.”
