Besides Joe and Jill, what members of his family are eligible for whatever health plan he’d get as veep? I don’t know of any teenage offspring of Joe being publicly acknowledged. Shouldn’t his adult children have to scrounge about for their own coverage like the rest of us?

None; both of his surviving children are over age 25, and thus, cannot be covered by their parents’ health insurance.
