Patient's Choice Act: Protecting Short-Term Health Insurance Duration up to 36 Months.

This bill prevents federal agencies from finalizing a rule that would restrict the maximum duration of Short-Term, Limited-Duration Insurance (STLDI). It ensures that citizens can continue to use these plans, often a lower-cost alternative, for up to 36 months, including renewals. The legislation also formally defines STLDI within federal health law.
