I have no clue if you are eligible for COBRA. You have to talk to your benefits co ordinator at AmeriCorps to see if they offer it.

Most likley your husband would not be eligible for coverage since he is not on the plan now, so there would be no plan for him to continue on COBRA.

If you are young and healthy, you can always try individual medical coverage.

: I've been an AmeriCorps *VISTA with the CNCS of the Fed. Govt. I have successfully completed two terms (two tears) & currently I'm am enrolled in the third year term from July 26, 2004. I'm planning to quit & am looking for an alternative medical coverage.

: Will I be eligible for COBRA till I find an employer to cover me?

: How long may I continue with COBRA in-between jobs?

: Can my husband also join COBRA, though he's not on my health plan provided by the CNCS.

: What will be the cost for me alone?
: Or for the two of us, if he's able to join?

: Thanks.
