How COBRA Insurance Works In Indiana
Indiana observes the federal COBRA law, which was signed into law on March 1986 as part of the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (COBRA). This law requires employers with 20 or more employees to offer continuation of health coverage to eligible employees and their dependents who would otherwise lose their group health coverage due to a qualifying event, such as termination of employment or reduction of work hours.

Indiana and COBRA Health Insurance
For those in Indiana who are changing jobs but still need to keep their health insurance, COBRA insurance is a choice. After a qualifying event, such as a job loss or a decrease in work hours, COBRA rights allow eligible individuals to maintain their group health coverage for a limited amount of time, typically 18 months.
COBRA is a good choice for people who already have health issues and may have a hard time finding individual health insurance options that are within their price range. These people benefit from COBRA insurance because it gives them the assurance that they can keep receiving treatment for their pre-existing conditions.
