To amend the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act to expand eligibility for catastrophic plans.

# HR 6421 Summary **What the Bill Does:** This bill would change the rules for "catastrophic health plans" under the Affordable Care Act (ACA). Currently, these low-premium plans with high deductibles are only available to people under 30 years old. The bill would expand who can buy these plans, though the specific details of the expansion aren't provided in the available information. **Who It Affects:** The bill would primarily affect people shopping for health insurance on the ACA marketplace.

It could benefit individuals seeking cheaper monthly premiums in exchange for higher out-of-pocket costs when they need care, and insurance companies offering these plans. **Current Status:** As of now, HR 6421 is still in committee review, meaning it hasn't advanced to a full House vote. The bill was introduced by Rep. Max Miller (R-OH) in the 119th Congress. *Note: Full details about the specific age or eligibility changes proposed weren't available in the provided information.*.
