Ensuring Compliance for the New COBRA Revisions
The objective of the COBRA revisions under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 is to provide the opportunity for eligible individuals to pay reduced premiums and gives additional election opportunities for health insurance coverage under COBRA. The essence of what is being referred to as the COBRA subsidy is that eligible individuals will pay only 35 percent of the COBRA premium, and the remaining 65 percent is reimbursed to the health insurance coverage provider (typically the employer or the health insurance plan) through a tax credit.
Though there are many more details to be ironed out by federal agencies, employers should begin the compliancy process now. This webcast outlines the key provisions of the law and provides useful suggestions on how to prepare to be compliant under the new law.
