BN170 - COBRA Notification Report

Run BN170 (COBRA Notification Report) to list COBRA participants who have not
been notified of their right to extend coverage or to terminate an
individual's rights to COBRA coverage if the individual has not responded to
his or her notification letter.

If you run the report to list COBRA participants who have not been notified
of their rights, BN170 lists COBRA participants whose Participant Notified
field in BN70.2 (Participant Dates) is blank.

If you run the report to terminate rights to COBRA coverage, the Benefits
system uses the Company Notified field in BN70.2 (Participant Dates) to
determine if the individual has exceeded the maximum number of allowed
notification days, which is defined in the Election field in BN00.2 (COBRA
Parameters). If the difference between the Occurrence Date and Company
Notified fields in BN70.1 (COBRA Participant) is greater than the maximum
number of allowed notification days, the COBRA participant's Termination Date
becomes the same date as the COBRA participant's occurrence date.

The report uses information on the system date the report is run.
