How long may I continue Health Plan coverage under COBRA?
You may continue Health Plan coverage under COBRA for a period of eighteen (18) months. Continuation may extend beyond the 18-month period if certain other events, such as divorce or disability, occur during this period. Your continued coverage may terminate sooner than 18 months if you do not pay your premiums on a timely basis, if you become covered under another Health Plan, including Medicare, or if your employer ceases to provide any group Health Plan (including successor plans) to any employee, such as in the event of cessation of operations.
