In NYS, what is the minumum number of hours a person can work and still be eligible to purchase insurance through the employers' plan at a public health center. Also, at what point can the employer force the employee to purchase COBRA coverage. After the employee is on COBRA, what is the maximum length of time can the employee stay on the plan? What if any insurance options must the employer at the end of the time period. Incidently, the employee is a dentist who has a person contract that states his benefits will will continue at the current level of benefits as when he was originally hired in a full time position. Incidently, he is still on the payroll and has been told that he can no longer have insurance as his 18 months on COBRA has expired. He never asked to be put on COBRA in the first. Thanks, for a quick response as he was told verbally that he has 14 days left before his insurance is terminated.
