Kaiser Health News reports that the Secretary of HHS is pushing for employers to not wait until January 2011 (or first plan year after September 23, 2010) to allow adult children to stay on their parents employer provided coverage to age 26.
This is consistent with the statement by Phyllis Borzi regarding the effective date of this provision for collectively bargained plans.
QUINNSCOMMENTARY 
A negative unintended consequence is that some young people will take a job with less chance of advancement because the better job provides health insurance for them with them paying some of the cost. If they take a petty job that does not provide coverage, they can stay, for free, on their parents insurance, probably with the parents paying for it. This is typical, a provision actually hurts in the long run.
