New York COBRA Insurance

New York health insurance regulations require that COBRA applies to employers with 20 or more employees. An employee who is eligible to have COBRA coverage can keep the coverage for up to 18 months, or until they acquire another type of New York health insurance. Depending on the situation, some eligible dependents can stay covered for 36 months, and the disabled for up to 29 months. New York health insurance under COBRA is the same coverage you had with your group plan. If the group plan you belonged to ends, the COBRA plan will end also. For those whose COBRA coverage has run out or ended, New York health insurance can be obtained through the New York Comprehensive Health Insurance Association (ACHIA).
