What plans are covered under COBRA continuation of benefits?

 

The medical, dental, and vision plans offered by your employer are all included under the COBRA continuation of benefits guidelines. However, you may continue only those plans in which you were enrolled on the date of your loss of eligibility. For example, if you were enrolled in a PPO medical plan and the vision plan, you may continue either or both of those two plans. You would be ineligible to elect participation in a dental plan, and ineligible to change to an HMO medical plan, until the next annual Open Enrollment period.
