You can continue your employer insurance for 18 months. But, as you say, it's more out of your pocket because your employer is now no longer subsidizing it.

You're referring to COBRA, and when my wife and I had a month lapse because of her switching jobs, it would have cost us $1300/month to continue her insurance. Not cheap.

I just got off 2 months of it between jobs, was around $1,100 for me as well. Certainly not cheap without the subsidization but also probably not a real concern if you're looking at taking a year off work anyways.
