A:  This is something you will need to work through with your employer since it was a continuation of the group health insurance.  They may use a Cobra Administrator and you will need to find out who it was and explain your situation.  Most of the time, if you are late with Cobra payments, they are not able to reinstate the coverage.  You will be responsible for any incurred bills.  Last resort is contacting the Department of Labor. 866-487-2365.
