Changing plan elections under Cobra

[Guest swright]

Can an employee that had elected Medical, Rx, and Dental coverage prior to their Cobra event then switch to just Medical and Rx (dental dropped) for their Cobra election? It is my understanding that the QB cannot drop/add coverage elements unless it was an open enrollment period-which this is not.

If the coverages are offered separately, they have the right to elect all or none of the coverages at the time they are electing COBRA.
