It was for this very reason that when I left my job I made sure to do it in the beginning of the month. I would confirm with your husbands HR though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/insurance-question-when-leaving-a-job#post-1460131 Sat, 01 Mar 2014 11:20:07 +0000 mrs.shinerbock 1460131@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My insurance ended on the last day worked, but they would not have refunded anything or prorated it, so I would check with your hr department. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/insurance-question-when-leaving-a-job#post-1460058 Sat, 01 Mar 2014 10:08:44 +0000 Mae 1460058@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think you should ask HR because every policy may be different. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/insurance-question-when-leaving-a-job#post-1460057 Sat, 01 Mar 2014 10:06:42 +0000 bhbee 1460057@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>it's been my experience that if you are employed on the 1st of the month, you will usually get benefits for the whole month even if you quit during that month, because the premiums are paid once a month. </p> <p>Anyone know if this is standard practice? We are trying to choose an end date for my husband around March 31 but would really like to keep our insurance for April. We can cobra but I was wondering if it would be cheaper to try to work a couple days into April. </p> <p>Thanks for any input! </p>
