You do not have to pay for September. However, if the employee elects COBRA coverage and pays his/her premium in a timely manner you then have to make the COBRA coverage retroactive, and pay the September premium,so that he/she does not have a break in coverage.
Then the time limits for COBRA coverage would begin from September 1./

All claims are denied until the Cobra payment has been received. At that time, previously denied claims can be reprocessed.

Daily Q&A

How to Address Flagging Motivation?

How do I increase motivation levels in the department? How do I brand my business unit as an attractive place to work? I have top-notch IT professionals in my business unit who feel they are "children of a lesser God" because they are non-billable resources and do not get plum postings abroad, nor the glamour that goes with them. As a result, their motivation suffers.
