Q:  I have just begun COBRA after having left my employment of 9 years. Now, I am considering another job with health insurance benefits. If I take this job, how long must I work to again qualify for COBRA when I leave that job?

 

A:   As long as you have obtained health insurance from your employer you are eligible for the COBRA continuation coverage.  The length of time you are employed doesn’t determine your COBRA eligibility.  As long as you are enrolled in your new employer’s group health plan and they have more than 20 employees, you would qualify for COBRA.
