You can continue your LPSA coverage under COBRA through the end of the calendar year in which you take an unpaid leave of absence or your employment is terminated. If you do not continue coverage under COBRA, you cannot use the account for expenses incurred beyond the start date of your leave or your termination date, respectively. However, you will have until the following June 30 to submit and resolve your claims, including pertinent supporting documentation, for services incurred before the start date of your leave or your termination date. Note: If your 2019 claims deadline falls within the National Emergency, your deadline will be recalculated to allow an additional four months to submit claims for reimbursement from the end of the National Emergency.
