Only if your employer's plan will provide out of network coverage (emergencies are always covered). If you are leaving the local coverage area, then your better choice would be a HIPAA conversion plan -- unfortunately, that only works AFTER your COBRA continuation benefits have been fully exhausted (18 months down the road).
