Yes, read up on HIPPA. I think that stands for Health Insurance Plan Portability Act. It's primary purpose is so that employees do not feel "job locked" simply out of fear of loosing insurance coverage. You have many protections under HIPPA and you should be fine if you read and understand what you are to do, and not to do.

A few months after I was diagnosed, the company I own had to change health insurance carriers because the previous company had gotten out of the small group market. I'm actually the agent for our health insurance policy, but it's the only one I ever tried to sell I'm licensed for it but do not use it (in my state, the health insurance license was part of getting licensed for life insurance and annuities which is part of what I do for a living as a financial advisor / investment broker).
