Can you lose your health insurance coverage when you change jobs?

Posted on Friday, May 7th, 2010 at 12:37 pm    

When individuals change jobs, there are certain laws in place to protect their health insurance coverage for a certain period of time. One such law is the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act.

HIPAA protects the health insurance coverage for workers and their families when the workers change or lose jobs. This means that they can retain their health insurance coverage for a certain period of time until they get another job or join another plan.
