Who Can Be Added To Health Insurance? 
Generally , you can only add your spouse or kids to your health insurance policy . If you 're trying to add your kids , they can stay on your plan up until age 26 . Your parents typically can not be added to your health plan . In some cases , if you are claiming them as a dependent on your tax return , you may be able to add them to your health plan . Check with your agent/insurance company to see who is allowed to be added under your plan - what 's allowed can vary from company to company .
