If I go off assignment, will I lose my health coverage?
Not necessarily. If you go off assignment you will need to contact the Benefits Department as soon as possible, requesting to pay the premium to maintain your health coverage, otherwise you will be offered COBRA coverage.
What is COBRA coverage?
The Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (COBRA) provides field associates who lose their health benefits the right to continue their coverage that would otherwise be terminated upon job loss.
Is COBRA coverage more expensive?
If you had been qualified for an employer contribution, once enrolled through COBRA, there would no longer be an employer contribution and you would be responsible for the total premium. Additionally, there is a 2% administrative fee added to the premium.
How long can I be on COBRA?
Depending on the state you live in and your circumstances, COBRA benefits may extend from 18 to 36 months.
What is the purpose of the New Health Insurance Marketplace Coverage Options and Your Health Coverage notice that was provided to me at hire?
As a result of the new health care reform law, Part A of this notice provides you with information on how you can purchase health insurance through the Health Insurance Marketplace. Part B provides Rx relief’s information as your employer. Go to healthcare.gov to examine your health insurance options available outside of Rx relief.
