In this step, you specify your organization's policy regarding the events that cause loss of health coverage, the start of the COBRA coverage continuation period, and the plans offered for continuation under COBRA.

Requirements

Standard settings

Note

You need to make the settings in this step for each of your benefit areas. To make settings for a different benefit area, set the benefit area in the step Basic Settings -> Set Current Benefit Area. Then return to this step and make the appropriate settings.

Activities

  1. Specify which COBRA qualifying events trigger loss of health coverage.

    COBRA legislation prescribes the types of events for which an employer must offer continuation coverage to individuals who have experienced such an event. However, your organization may choose to be more generous than legislation requires, and to allow regular plan participation to continue even when certain events occur.

    If you do not select a particular event type, the system will not collect qualified beneficiaries who experience that event.

  2. If non-resident aliens who receive no income from US sources are excluded from qualifying for COBRA, enter the appropriate residence status.

    The residence status is stored on the Residence Status (infotype 0094) record.

  3. Indicate whether the legally required COBRA coverage continuation period begins when a COBRA qualifying event occurs or when regular health coverage ends, as determined by the plan's termination rule.
  4. Use the indicator Restrict offer to last participation to specify whether you want to offer qualified beneficiaries only those COBRA-relevant plans and plan options in which they were enrolled prior to the qualifying event, rather than all COBRA-relevant plans for which they were eligible.
  5. Use the indicator Offer only FSAs with positive balance to specify whether you want to offer COBRA coverage continuation only for those FSAs that have a positive balance on the date of the COBRA event or for all FSAs regardless of their balance.
