and how much of COBRA does the company pay after you get laid off?

oh. none.

It depends on the company. Centex paid my wife's COBRA until she got
another job. It only took a week but the deal was good for 6 months.
IBM kept people on the IBM insurance plan for up to 5 years in some of
the separation packages that were offered but one year was the norm.

there are very few IBM's in the world. IBM had a no layoff policy
until the mid 80's.

most companies don't pay COBRA. again you're putting faith in the rich
above common sense
