: Does anyone know whether I can cancel my COBRA coverage mid-month (i.e., when I begin my new job)? Or am I stuck paying a full month's COBRA premium even though my new job health benefits are kick in mid-month? Thanks for your help.

I'm not sure, but look on your bill. Ours has a due date and a grace date. Our due date is 1st of the month and grace 31 days later. You could hold off paying until new benefits kick in. If you don't have any medical expense, call them and tell them you are canceling. If you have major expense, mail in the payment so it will be covered. If I were you, I would get payment already to mail in and tell someone where it is and to mail it for you if you end up in the hospital for any reason.
