COBRA - Purchase of company

[Guest Lynnemarie]

When a company purchases a small company with terminated employees on state continuation (with a lesser maximum period of coverage than COBRA), should the buyer extend the state continuation to COBRA?

[Guest OBAS]

Some medical carriers are more flexible than others. My only suggestion would be to ask the insurance carrier what they might be willing to do. They may have more information on the legalities of COBRA for the x-employees.

Good luck
