Q: If somebody misses a a payment period including the grace period and their coverage is cancelled, is there a way to get COBRA reinstated? A: Payments that are made after the 30 day grace period do not have to be accepted by your previous employer and your COBRA continuation coverage will be terminated . However, if your previous employer and their insurance is willing to accept the payment after the grace period you would be required to pay all premiums to date.
