Q:I received a letter from my employer (since 97), I work part-time and the health insurance requirement is 30 hours a week. I got demoted, instead of them laying me off, and I only work about 5-10 hours a week. Since I am still employed with them, do I qualify for COBRA? I am in MA. I cannot afford the full premium and they are terminating my insurance Nov 30th. Thank you in advance.
A:If the company has more than 20 employees, Cobra should be an option to you.Cobra is a continuation of the same insurance you had when you were working full time and on the group health plan.You can visit www.dol.gov/COBRA it will explain the Cobra law to you and the rights you have as far as continuing your benefits through your employer.
