Keeping Your Health Coverage Intact

If you've recently lost your job and are worried about health benefits, check out your rights under COBRA.

COBRA is a federal law that enables you to keep coverage for yourself and your family after a job loss and other events, such as divorce. In some cases, you can continue coverage (at your own cost, of course) for up to 18 months.
