COBRA Administration
COBRA Administration includes the full management of activities required by
the Consolidated Omnibus Reconciliation Act of 1986 and related amendments
and legislation, including the Health Insurance Portability and
Accountability Act (HIPAA) of 1996. Aurora Administrative Solutions, Ltd.
provides complete administration of COBRA continuation of coverage
requirements for employers. When a participant in the health plan has a
qualifying event as defined in the regulations, the employer will notify
Aurora Administrative Solutions, Ltd. We provide the required notifications
to the former participant, process the subsequent enrollment to continue
the coverage with the health plan, collect, track, and remit future
premiums and update eligibility with the health plan provider. Aurora
Administrative Solutions, Ltd. provides notification of termination of
coverage to the participant and the health plan provider at the end of
eligibility for the COBRA continuation of coverage, along with the
Certificate of Coverage as required by the Health Insurance Portability and
Accountability Act of 1996. Certificates of Coverage records are maintained
for the full two year period required and we provide all subsequent
Certificates as they are requested by participants and former participants.
If elected by the employer, Aurora Administrative Solutions, Ltd. also
provides the initial notification of COBRA rights to participants when they
first become covered under the health plan.
