Letâs say you have $125 taken from each paycheck for health insurance. You get paid twice per month, so your portion of the monthly premiums is $250. Your employer contributes $300 per month toward your health insurance premiums, so the total cost of your job-based health plan is $550 per month. To figure the 2% service charge, multiply that $550 monthly premium by 0.02. Youâll get $11. Add this $11 service charge the $550 premium cost and your COBRA health insurance cost will be $561 per month.
How much does COBRA coverage cost compared to alternate health insurance? COBRA premium rates are simply the sum of the employer's portion of the cost of coverage plus the employee's portion of the cost of coverage plus an administrative fee. The cost of coverage under COBRA is basically the same as the total cost of coverage when it was previously provided through an employer plan.
