    what he didbwas out of generosity, you need to contact them so you can continue to make your contribution, the employer is under no obligation to continue your health insurance while you are out if you do not pay.

    your workers comp pay has nothing to do with your employer or health benefits

    If you are no longer receiving a paycheck from your company than there is nothing to deduct from. It depends if you are still employed by the company then they will either bill you for your portion of the premium or sometimes they will let you pay double payments when you return to work. If you are no longer employed by them then you should receive paperwork for COBRA so you can continue to pay your insurance on your own.
