Cobra coverage?

I resigned my job. I have family coverage. Can I choose to keep coverage for myself ? My hubby is covered elsewhere.

Answer:
No, you can't pick and choose. Cobra is, exactly as it was the last day you were employed. So if you want cobra, you have to do teh whole family coverage.

Answer:
yes, if your employer offers it. they should have given you a packet, or you can contact your insurance company for the packet.

Answer:
you should be able to. it will cost you an arm and a leg for it though. It might be cheaper for your hubby to add family coverage to his insurance if at all possible

Answer:
You should be offered Cobra coverage for yourself, you will be responsible for the total cost of insurance where as before your employer was probably paying a portion of the premium. You should be able to added to your hubby's insurance as this would be a qualifying event. I have been in this situation before and I would recommend cobra if there is a pre-existing condition, i.e.pregnancy etc. Otherwise I would suggest that you move towards your hubby's plan unless you don't like to Doctors, then you will just be out quite a bit more money. Good Luck
