The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare, mandates that young adults can remain on their parents' health insurance policy until they turn 26 years old.

So, no, you will not lose your parents insurance the day you turn 26. You will still be able to remain on their health insurance policy until you turn 26 years old.

There is no one-size-fits-all answer to this question, as it depends on a variety of factors, including your parents' insurance plan and your own personal circumstances. However, in general, once you turn 26, you will no longer be eligible for coverage under your parents' insurance plan. You may be able to find other insurance options through your employer or the marketplace, but it is important to compare plans and rates carefully to find the best coverage for your needs.

The answer to this question depends on a few different factors. First, it depends on whether or not you are currently enrolled in your parents' insurance plan. If you are enrolled in your parents' insurance plan, then you will lose your insurance the day you turn 26. However, if you are not currently enrolled in your parents' insurance plan, then you will not lose your insurance the day you turn 26.

There are a few other things to keep in mind as well. First, even if you lose your parents' insurance the day you turn 26, you may still be eligible for other types of insurance, such as through your employer or through the marketplace. Second, if you have a pre-existing condition, you may be eligible for insurance through the marketplace even if you are not currently enrolled in your parents' insurance plan.

If you have any other questions about your insurance, you can contact your insurance company or the marketplace directly.
