COBRA
The Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (COBRA) requires employers to offer continuous health care coverage to employees and their dependents who would otherwise lose their coverage due to termination of employment or other factors.
Here are answers to the most common questions about COBRA.
- What is COBRA coverage?
- The Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (COBRA) is a continuation of group health plan coverage for a qualified individual who might otherwise lose coverage under a group health plan.
- How do I get on COBRA?
- COBRA has basic requirements to be eligible. An eligible qualified beneficiary (QB) is one who loses group health plan coverage due to a qualifying event. The QB may elect to continue group health plan coverage for a limited time on a self pay basis.
- What are Qualifying Events?
- A Qualifying Event (QE) is generally when a triggering event causes a loss of health plan coverage. There are 7 triggering events:
- Termination of Employment or Reduction in hours.
- Birth or adoption
- Death
- Marriage or Divorce
- Child gains or loses dependent status
- Gains or loses Medicare or Medicaid coverage
- Qualifying Medical Child Support Order
The qualifying event must cause the QB to lose coverage.
- A Qualifying Event (QE) is generally when a triggering event causes a loss of health plan coverage. There are 7 triggering events:
- How long can I stay on COBRA?
- COBRA requires that continuation coverage extend from the date of the qualifying event for a limited period of 18 or 36 months. The length of time depends on the type of qualifying event that gave rise to the COBRA rights. A plan, however, may provide longer periods of coverage beyond the maximum period required by law.
- Can a family member or friend call and ask questions for me?
- BMA follows and adheres to HIPAA regulations and we will not be able to talk to anyone regarding your account unless they are an adult on the account or we receive written permission from you that we are allowed to release information to that named person.
