UC's third-party administration, CONEXIS, administers all aspects of COBRA processing. This not only includes handling the premium payments, it also includes sending out the COBRA packets for all Qualifying Events. There are many Qualifying Events, some of which UC is responsible for reporting directly to CONEXIS and some of which employees are responsible for reporting to UC, who in turn, reports the Qualifying Event information to CONEXIS. After reading through the materials, if you have any questions, please contact Benefits.
