Who administers COBRA and other forms of continuation coverage?

The Health Care Authority (HCA) administers the continuation coverage for COBRA and unpaid leave starting January 1, 2020. At that time, once a SEBB organization notifies the SEBB Program through Benefits 24/7 that a school employee has lost eligibility for SEBB benefits, HCA will mail a SEBB Continuation Coverage Election Notice booklet to the subscriber and/or any enrolled dependent who lost SEBB coverage. The subscriber and/or dependents will work directly with HCA to enroll in and pay for benefits under SEBB Continuation Coverage. They cannot enroll in continuation coverage through Benefits 24/7. A paper enrollment form will be included in the SEBB Continuation Coverage Election Notice. See the SEBB Continuation Coverage webpage for more information.
