Comment on Is COBRA Health Insurance Right For You? by nperry

The current COBRA laws say that a person is not eligible for COBRA insurance if they were “terminated for gross misconduct,” but the exact definition of “gross misconduct” has never been tested in court. As a result, an individual who has been fired (as opposed to laid off) is eligible for COBRA insurance, assuming all of the other qualifications for eligibility have been satisfied.

Shorter answer: if you’ve been fired, you can still get COBRA.

This is a HUGE help. I was laid off 1/29 and have been scrambling to find single-person health insurance before 2/28 when my company insurance will expire. I *don’t* want to pay COBRA of $440/month. I am searching for an independent agent now in FL. Thanks!!

btw, someone sent me this article from twitter. not sure if it was you or not.
