Gretchen Whitmer: “Young people can stay on their parents plans until they turn…”

“What we can do is make health care more convenient and more affordable. Over the past seven years. That's exactly what we've done. Because of our work together, insurers can't charge more for pre existing conditions. Young people can stay on their parents plans until they turn 26. Prior authorizations are faster, digitized and more transparent. And there are no more surprise medical bills and no caps on annual or lifetime care and mental health finally covered equally to physical health by law, making Michigan the first state to get that done.” (31:00–31:05)
