An employee who elects USERRA continuation coverage may be required to pay a premium.

However, if the military leave of absence lasts more than thirty (30) days, the person may be required to pay up to 102% of the full contribution under the Plan (including both, the employer’s and the employee’s contribution for coverage). USERRA continuation coverage may be terminated before the maximum 24 month period if: 1. The employee fails to pay the required premiums timely, or 2. The day after the date on which the employee is required under the law to apply for or return to a position of employment and fails to do so. Employers subject to the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (COBRA) may choose to provide USERRA continuation coverage rights concurrently with COBRA continuation coverage, as allowed by law. Each employer acts independently in choosing how to apply this provision and is not reflective of any guidelines issued from BCBSLA. In all cases, the employer should be consulted on how this provision applies to their employer group sponsored plan. Please contact your employer to ask for more details on how USERRA and other continuation coverage rights apply to You.
