How does it work in conjunction with COBRA?
Answer: There are 2 Federal laws that protect people in every single state in the US that face difficulty in getting and keeping health insurance coverage.
The 2 laws are the HIPAA laws and the COBRA laws.
In a nutshell as long as someone does the responsible thing and tries to keep their health insurance coverage for as long as they can then if they lose the coverage due to reasons beyond their own control then the COBRA and HIPAA laws step in and mandate guaranteed issue coverage that covers all pre-existing conditions.
