My understanding is you can sign up for it retroactively if something happens. For example I left my job on a Friday and started my new job on Monday, so I didn't have insurance for the weekend. If something urgent happened, (I think) I could have signed up for COBRA after the fact and had the incident covered.
I left my job recently. Anyone want to guess what my COBRA premiums would have been?
$900 per month.
why does cobra even exist, literally no one can afford it
It exists so Dems can pretend that health insurance isn't completely dependent on employment
:yea:
