Enrolling
Pay on Time
According to the rules that govern MPTN COBRA coverage, if you fail to make payments for your MPTN COBRA health coverage on schedule, your coverage will end. No exceptions will be made, even if your payment is only one day late.
In most cases, you will automatically receive an election form and more information about MPTN COBRA health coverage if you become eligible for it.
In the case of a divorce or legal separation, or when your covered dependent child loses eligibility, you or the affected individual is responsible for notifying the MPTN Human Resources office within 60 days of the event to request enrollment information and elect MPTN COBRA health coverage.
60-Day Deadline
You must elect MPTN COBRA health care coverage within 60 days after an event qualifies you for MPTN COBRA, or 60 days after the MPTN Human Resources office mails your election form, whichever is later. Remember that you need to notify the MPTN Human Resources office within 60 days if a covered family member becomes eligible for MPTN COBRA benefits.
