Health Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs) are subject to COBRA. However, most FSAs are only required to offer COBRA if the account has a positive balance. In other words, the beneficiary has contributed more that he or she has received in reimbursements. If the account is overspent, COBRA does not have to be offered.
