Q: In March 2008 I was first notified that my COBRA rate was raised in January 2008 and that I owe my previous employer the rate difference for my January coverage. I discontinued my COBRA coverage in February 2008 by discontinuing my payments. I received an email in March of the rate hike and then a letter on 3/20. I don't want to pay the difference. If I don't pay my previous employer the rate difference at this time, what can they do about it?
A:Since, your COBRA was active during January; you will be responsible for paying the difference in the rate increase for that month.If you didn’t pay any premiums in the month of February your COBRA coverage was cancelled for non-payment so you will not be responsible for any additional premiums.
