Q: Can I get COBRA for only 13 days? I will be leaving my current company 11/16 and then starting the new insurance on 12/01. Can COBRA be prorated for that small of a timeframe?
A: The shortest amount of time you can have COBRA continuation is 30 days. Your premium payments to COBRA are usually for 30 days of coverage. You have the right to cancel your COBRA coverage at any time. You may want to contact your employer or their plan administrator to see if the can bill you for only the days you need the COBRA coverage.
