Cobra - Medicare Trap

Posted by kate wilson on September 12, 2005 at 08:29:31:

Our COBRA insurer has notified us that it will only pay secondary to Medicare Plan B, even though my husband is not enrolled in Medicare Plan B. Worse, the COBRA notice provides that our COBRA coverage can be terminated if he "becomes elibigle" for Medicare. The result is that he is about 80% uninsured, and we received no prior notification of this (nothing when we signed up for COBRA, and nothing in the summary plan description). Can anybody help>
