I agree that COBRA payments create "sticker shock" for most applicants. In addition, only those usable to qualify for another type of coverage take the COBRA benefit. My question is IF the benefit is subsidized where will the money come from? These are so many "needs" but we cannot fund them all. Better to ease restrictions on State pools for those unable to afford COBRA.
