Your health benefit will end 28 days after your last day of employment with the RF. This includes termination of coverage for all dependents included on your plan.
You are eligible to continue your health benefit through COBRA. COBRA is a federal law that requires employers to offer its employees and their covered dependents the right to continue health, dental and vision care coverage.
The right to choose continuation of coverage is available after an employee terminates employment, either voluntarily or involuntarily, or when the employee or dependent is no longer eligible for coverage because of certain qualifying events (e.g., reduction in hours of employment or a child reaching the limiting age).
As an alternative to continuing RF coverage, you can enroll for coverage through www.healthcare.gov. Those without coverage may qualify for federal subsidies to help them purchase coverage.
Your campus Benefits Office will provide you with a packet of information when you become COBRA eligible.
