Continuation of Benefits while on Unpaid Leave. Providing the employee continues monthly premium coverage payments set forth in Section 18.2 above, insurance coverage for which the employee is eligible will be extended ninety (90) days beyond the end of the month during which an employee's approved leave without pay or leave of absence status became effective. The employee's insurance will then be terminated with an option to participate in the City's insurance continuation program, COBRA, at the employee's expense. If any monthly premiums coverage payments are not paid as specified herein, the City is authorized to pursue collection of monies due by either deducting the monies directly from the employee’s regular paycheck, if any, or final paycheck from the City.
