Referred to the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability.
The Fix FEDVIP Age Act would expand dental and vision insurance coverage under the Federal Employees Dental and Vision Insurance Program (FEDVIP) to include dependent children up to age 26, raising the current age limit of 22. This change would allow federal employees and retirees to extend coverage for their dependent children through age 25, providing continued access to dental and vision care during young adulthood. The bill affects federal employees, retirees, and their families who participate in FEDVIP. The legislation does not specify additional funding requirements, as it would operate within the existing FEDVIP framework by extending eligibility rather than creating a new program. The bill was introduced in January 2024 and referred to the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability.
