ALBANY, N.Y New York campaign finance records show American International Group donated $100,000 to the state Democratic Committee just before Democratic Gov. David Paterson and his insurance superintendent launched marathon sessions to prop up the embattled insurer.

The contribution was made Aug. 29. Insurance Superintendent Eric Dinallo started negotiating with AIG and federal officials within about two weeks.

On Sept. 16, Paterson announced the “great news” that New York officials helped the giant insurer strike a historic loan deal with the Federal Reserve to keep AIG afloat.

There was no immediate comment from Paterson, Dinallo or AIG.

The state’s effort is credited with giving AIG time to survive.

New York May Require Longer Coverage for Family Health Plans
Email | Print | A A A

By Michael Quint

Jan. 6 (Bloomberg) — Group health insurers in New York would have to give parents the option to extend coverage to their children until age 30 under a proposal Governor David Paterson plans to introduce, state officials said.

The proposal would provide young adults “the opportunity to purchase insurance at the much more affordable family/group rate from their parents’ employers,” Paterson said in a statement.

Currently, coverage under a parent’s group plan ceases when a young person graduates from high school or college. New York, with a total population of 19.3 million, has 2.5 million people without health insurance. About 31 percent, or 775,000, of those are 19 to 29 years old, according to Jon Cohen, a senior adviser to Paterson.

The change would require legislators’ approval and will be included in Paterson’s State of the State address, scheduled for 1 p.m. tomorrow in Albany, the state capital. The state Insurance Department would oversee prices and rules for the new policies.

So are you an adult at 18 or 30?
