Business owners quickly find out — administration of COBRA (Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act) which provides an extension of Medical Insurance/Benefits to employees and their dependents in certain circumstances, has become a time-consuming and complicated task.

4. The extent of indemnification protection should something go wrong
