[QUOTE="Jones, post: 5504044, member: 4805"] The particulars depend on your local, there are a bunch of different health insurance plans in the Atlantic Area. But in general, most of the plans require the company to make a weekly contribution as long as the employee works at least one day so if the company is offering weeklong layoffs it's because that allows them to skip the weekly payment. That doesn't mean your insurance will lapse. Some plans do require the employee to work a certain amount of hours per month in order to maintain HC coverage but just taking a week off shouldn't put you under the requirement unless you miss a bunch of other days as well. Even if that happens your coverage won't just lapse, you'll get a letter informing you of the shortage and giving you the option to make a COBRA payment to maintain coverage for the period in which you had a shortage.
