Under federal COBRA regulations, employees and their dependents can elect a temporary extension of their health benefits when their group coverage would normally end (i.e., following termination, layoff, divorce, etc.). This extended coverage can last from 18 to 36 months, depending on the event.
HIPAA regulations require that employers provide employees losing coverage with a certificate of creditable coverage. This certificate shows the length of time the employee was covered under the group health plan, the type of coverage and the individuals covered.
