Q:  I was laid off on Aug 1, 2008 - does this mean I do not qualify for the stimulus package? I have not been able to find employment and the payments are taking all of my money. Help!

A:  For information on the stimulus package and how it will affect your COBRA coverage, you should contact the Federal Department of Labor, they regulate the COBRA law.  The department of labor’s phone number is 866-444-3272 or visit their website at www.dol.gov

When should you seriously consider a COBRA Alternative?

You should consider a COBRA Alternative if you...

·         cannot afford COBRA option offered by former employer and or

·         have few or no pre-existing conditions and or

·         want continual coverage at a lower cost and or

·         have had no health problems and or

·         have not received any advice from medical professionals advising you to undergo a medical procedure in the future and or

·         are healthy, have a job and your new employer does not offer a health plan.

Since COBRA continuation can be fairly expensive we do offer an alternative to you at a lower cost. Here are some of our plan highlights:

·         30 days – 12 months of coverage

·         Next day coverage

·         Ability to choose any doctor or hospital

·         $1 Million Lifetime Maximum

Our policy does not cover any pre-existing medical conditions but does cover any unexpected illness that may happen.
