30 day waiting period. Can I do COBRA then sign up for coverage offered through new insurance?

New job, not eligible for coverage until June 1. Coverage from my old employer ends May 1.

is it illegal to be without coverage for a month?

If we elect COBRA for a month, can we sign up for coverage with the new employer on June 1?

Employer is offering for us to join their coverage for May and pay full price (no employer-paid benefit). This would be expensive. But is the most stress free answer to our problems?

Thanks in advance
