Moving from L1 to H1 - What will happen to current insurance??

[RV81]

Hi,

I just got my H1 approved and I will be resigning from my current employer (am currently on L1B). What will happen ti my current insurance ( Cigna) can I pay and keep the same insurance and benefits?

My wife is pregnant and am hoping to avoid change in insurance at this time.

Please advise.

Thanks
Raneesh

If your current employer has COBRA you can keep the same plan for I think up to 1 year. But remember you will have to pay the full cost (including whatever contribution your employer currently pays). Ask your employer.
Ask your new employer if their plan covers pre-existing pregnancy, specifically if you have had insurance in the past.
