Please note that you can also buy insurance online directly from KIB (Kosovo Insurance Bureau) at https://api.bks-ks.org/PolicaOnline/en-GB
Seems there is additional 1 EUR surcharge for online processing (16 EUR for 15 days, 21 EUR for 1 month instead of official 16 and 20 EUR correspondingly)

It is indeed true that you can buy insurance at the border when entering Kosovo. The reason being that Kosovo is not a member of the Green Card system. The Kosovo Insurance Bureau has a page on border insurance listing the border entry points where you can purchase insurance:

There are a total of 13 points of sale for border insurance policies, namely:

  • Point of sale in Prishtina – KIB headquarters
  • Point of sale in Podujeva – Merdare
  • Point of Sales Mitrovica
  • Point of sale in Glloboçica
  • Point of sale in Elez Han
  • Point of sale in Prizren – Vërmica
  • Point of sale in Peja – Kulla
  • Point of sale in Gjakovë – Qafe Morin and  Qafe Prush
  • Point of sale in Kamenica – Dheu i Bardhe
  • Point of sale in Gjilani – Muqibabe
  • Point of sale in Mutivode
  • Point of sale in Leposavic – Jarinje *
  • Point of sale in Zubin Potok – Bernjaka *

*These two points of sale are currently out of order (at the time of writing – Aug. 2015).

The insurance is valid for the entire length of your trip and its cost is vehicle dependent.

In terms of coverage, quoting from the linked KIB website:

2. What does the Border Insurance cover?

Border insurance covers all damages to third parties that are caused by owners of motor vehicles with foreign registration plates who hold a valid Border Insurance certificate. This insurance does not cover damages incurred to the vehicle that caused the damage, damages caused by unknown persons (N /N or hit and run), damages caused by natural disasters, as well as damages caused by the holder of such insurance to themselves by rollover, animals on the road, etc.
