My fiance and I are scheduled to get married in Fall 2012 when I graduate college. We have been considering moving the date up to Fall 2011. Our main concern is that we will lose our parents insurance if we get married. My fiance's employer offers health insurance but it is expensive and doesn't cover much. His parents insurance is much better. I have been reading some things about the new health care policy and was unclear about how they are treating the issue of married children.
--------------------
The policy will differ between providers. Some providers will allow a child to stay on a parents' policy until the age of 21, while others will allow the child to stay on the policy until the age of 25, so long as the child is in school. You should ask your parents to contact their providers, and inquire about the policy, and whether you will continue to be covered after getting married. Don't be surprised if you won't be covered.
