State Mini COBRA Programs Listing
Federal COBRA continuation is available to employees who leave groups which contain 20 or more employees. For groups under 20 employees, many states have created "mini-COBRA" programs to allow terminating employees to remain covered by the group health plan.
The table below shows those states which currently offer mini-COBRA continuation coverage, the group size effected, and the length of time that that state mini-COBRA program covers the former employee and their family. 38 states currently offer mini-COBRA benefits.
Please note that I cannot assist you with any Mini COBRA programs or information outside of California. If you have questions regarding Mini COBRA plans in states other than California, they are best directed to your group health insurance carrier or broker.
