Although the coverage was outsourced she lost 2 full months of coverage because of the delay incurred as a result of the merger. Does this interruption qualify as a "second qualifying event" and is she eligible for at least a two month extension as a result of this merger? If she is eligible for an extension how do we go about applying for same? Thank you, W. C. Gardner My wife’s COBRA coverage was interrupted by my company’s merger.
