Guest guest Posted July 6, 2004 Report Share Posted July 6, 2004 Some hospitals will pick-up a patient's COBRA if it is a mutually beneficial situation. You might check with your hospital, if you are located in one, to see if they offer this service. For obvious reasons, this is not publicized.

Guest guest Posted July 6, 2004 Report Share Posted July 6, 2004 HI All, To pay for a patient's COBRA may also be considered inducement by the Justice Department. Please double check with your legal department before paying for something like this.
