Covered 1: Career Change Coverage

What to do with your insurance before, during, and after a job switch

Changing jobs is exciting, but it's also one of the easiest times to create a coverage gap that costs you real money. Coverage often ends sooner than you expect, enrollment windows close fast, and the life and disability insurance your old employer provided usually doesn't follow you out the door.

This guide walks you through it in plain English, whether you're moving to a new employer, going self-employed, or sitting in the weeks between jobs.

Inside you'll find

✔ A three-window timeline: before you leave, the gap, and your first weeks at the new job

✔ COBRA, marketplace plans, a spouse's plan, and short-term coverage, explained plainly

✔ What changes when you go from W-2 to 1099 or self-employed

✔ A printable "Don't Forget" checklist for life insurance, disability, HSA/FSA funds, and your 401(k)

✔ A quick decision guide and answers to the most common questions

The details: 8-page printable PDF, instant download.
