Continued Coverage
Generally, your enrollment may continue for up to 365 days of leave without pay unless you want it to terminate or do not respond to your employing office's notice about continuing coverage during a period in leave without pay status. You must pay the employee share of premiums for every pay period that your enrollment continues.
Termination
Your enrollment will terminate at the end of the pay period which includes the 365th day in consecutive leave without pay status. You will have a 31-day extension of coverage and conversion rights.
