Answer: A good option for J.J. is to exercise the COBRA option under his father's group plan

Step-by-step explanation:

Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (COBRA) option provides the workers and their families the right thing continue enjoying and using the group health benefits after they have lost their health benefits.

It should be noted that this is for a certain period of time under some circumstances like job loss or going to college as in J.J case.
