\n<\/strong>An employer can be held liable for medical costs incurred by a former participant if that participant was never offered COBRA continuation or if the plan sponsor (employer) cannot prove a valid COBRA administration process has been established and followed within federal COBRA guidelines. Therefore, a catastrophic illness could put a company out of business, simply because they did not know the law.<\/p>\n
\nWe will provide detailed “General Notice of COBRA Rights” to all participants enrolling in any of your qualified plans. (Qualified plans include Medical, Dental, Vision, FSA, HRA, and all other possible COBRA benefits.) This notice “General Notice” will inform your enrollee of their COBRA rights and obligations should their benefits terminate in the future. This notification is required by federal COBRA law.<\/p>\n
