Can I Get A Refund For Overpaying COBRA?

I ended my COBRA coverage but my wife still made a few payments after we cancelled. We have been told we would get a refund. Now I am told by the insurance company that my former employer has to put enough funds in the account for my refund to go through. Is this true?

COBRA is the law that requires your previous employer to offer coverage through their group health plan. You would need to contact your previous employer’s COBRA Administrator (usually in the HR Department) or you may contact your provider directly to inquire about a refund for payments you’ve made after cancellation.
