Q: My husband is thinking about switching jobs, however, the company he would move to has a different insurance company. Can I leave my dependent child on the current employer's plan through COBRA even though the rest of the family would be on another insurance plan? He has a medical condition that may not be covered by the insurance company at the possible new place of employment.
A: On the election form (that you will get from your employer) you will be able to choose who you want to continue the COBRA coverage. The employee does not have to accept COBRA coverage for themselves to get their spouse or dependent children covered under COBRA continuation.
