What is state continuation? State law allows employees of smaller employers (fewer than 20 employees) to keep the same group health insurance coverage for up to nine months after loss of a job or loss of coverage because of a reduction in work hours. This is called state continuation.
The general notice describes general COBRA rights and employee obligations. This notice must be provided to each covered employee and each covered spouse of an employee who becomes covered under the plan. The notice must be provided within the first 90 days of coverage under the group health plan.
The Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (COBRA) gives workers and their families who lose their health benefits the right to choose to continue group health benefits provided by their group health plan for limited periods of time under certain circumstances such as voluntary or involuntary job loss,
Federal law requires that most group health plans (including this Plan) give employees and their families the opportunity to continue their health care coverage through COBRA continuation coverage when there's a qualifying event that would result in a loss of coverage under an employer's plan.
Unfortunately, Michigan does not have a Mini-COBRA Law that applies to companies with 19 or fewer employees. Though, the Non-Profit Health Care Corporation Reform Act does allow workers the option of converting their group health plan, to an individual self pay marketplace plan.
The 18 months or continuation coverage will be extended to 36 months from the date of the original qualifying event. Upon the occurrence of a second event, it is your or your spouse's or dependent's responsibility to notify the Benefits Office within 30 days of the event and within the original 18-month COBRA period.
There are several other scenarios that may explain why you received a COBRA continuation notice even if you've been in your current position for a long time: You may be enrolled in a new plan annually and, therefore, receive a notice each year. Your employer may have just begun offering a health insurance plan.
