What happens to my benefits if I stop working?

Your coverage is tied to your eligibility for the “employer contribution” (i.e., what your employer pays toward your coverage). When you stop working it’s called “terminating employment.” Whether it’s you or your employer who terminates your employment, you lose eligibility and may also lose your benefits. This page helps you understand when coverage ends and what options are available. https://www.hca.wa.gov/employee-retiree-benefits/public-employees/what-happens-if-i-stop-working
