Events & notices
The employer, carrier, payroll team, and administrator need a defined process for reporting events and issuing required communications.
Continuation coverage support
A clearer process when coverage changes.
We help employers coordinate COBRA responsibilities, notices, elections, records, and administration with the right partners.
What this covers
Administration that is organized before an event.
The right policy starts with the details of how the organization works and what it needs to protect.
Elections & payments
A consistent workflow helps track elections, payments, coverage updates, and communication with former employees or dependents.
Records & coordination
Documentation should show what happened, when it happened, and which party handled each step.
Typically included
What a useful review should include.
We compare the parts together so a lower price does not hide a larger gap.

Where policies fall short
Where coverage can fall short.
Most problems begin with an assumption that was never checked against the policy.
Everyone assumes someone else owns it
Payroll, HR, the carrier, and an administrator can each hold part of the process without one clear owner.
Events reported inconsistently
Late or incomplete information makes accurate administration and communication harder.
No audit trail
Without organized records, an employer may struggle to show which notices, elections, payments, and updates occurred.
Common questions
Questions clients ask first.
Straight answers before a decision is made.
Do you act as legal counsel?
No. We help coordinate benefits administration and the insurance pieces. Employers should rely on qualified counsel for legal advice.
Can a third party administer COBRA?
Yes. Many employers use an administrator. We help define the handoffs between that vendor, the employer, and the carrier.
What should the employer keep?
Keep organized records of events, notices, elections, payments, carrier updates, and communications according to guidance from your administrator and counsel.
