    When COBRA continuation coverage "runs out" individuals are able to purchase individual health insurance without waiting for the annual open enrollment period. An individual can purchase health insurance using a certified and licensed agent or go directly to the state or federal marketplace. Depending on your income level you may also qualify for a subsidy to help you pay for your health insurance.

    Health insurance is guaranteed issue since January 1, 2014 so there are no longer worries about not being able to obtain health insurance coverage,
