I found a website that answers this question. www.dmc.gov. It says that as long as the company that you work for has at least 20 employees and you are enrolled in the health plan you have the federal right to at least 18 months of coverage. You will have to pay the whole premium yourself though. ( all of this applies if you leave your job or your hours are cut and no longer qualify for the company's insurance). I hope this helps
