WEBINAR: Thursday, October 14 at 1:00 p.m. ET
One of the most confusing aspects of open enrollment for employers is handling individuals or families enrolled on COBRA or those pending COBRA enrollment. As a result, employers usually turn to COBRA administrators for assistance. This open enrollment season may feel particularly daunting for COBRA administrators, however, having just endured a year-plus of challenges related to COVID and the COBRA premium subsidy. In this webinar, we take a closer look at the 3 biggest open enrollment challenges COBRA administrators face this year, as well as steps they can take to streamline and simplify the process.
