So... Switching jobs but they have a 60-day waiting period for insurance at the new spot. Do I pay full premium on insurance for those months, or is it the same? I do not understand COBRA.

You should double check this in your fine print, BUT you should be able to be just fine and enroll in COBRA if you needed it and it would be retroactive to when you first left your old job. COBRA often has a 60 day enrollment window. Drive carefully and you could save a few thousand.

Cobra is just basically a continuation of your previous employers coverage, but you pay the full premium rather than the employer subsidizing some of it.

Yea, I’d keep it and not have a gap if you’re expecting.

Yikes... Well, maybe I can counter their counteroffer with a reduction in insurance terms... nothing to lose, I guess
