The American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (ARPA) includes provisions that immediately impact employers subject to COBRA.
For employees or beneficiaries who involuntarily incur a loss of coverage due to termination of employment or reduction of hours from April 1, 2021 through September 30, 2021 ARPA subsidizes the COBRA premium payment through September 30, 2021.
For employees or beneficiaries who involuntarily incurred a loss of coverage between November 1, 2019 and April 1, 2021, and who either did not elect COBRA or allowed it to lapse, ARPA creates a current opportunity to elect (or re-elect) COBRA prospectively.

One of the confusing aspects of planning for elderly clients is that some very important terms sound a lot alike.
The similarity of such terms can often be frustrating for clients seeking to understand the different rules and restrictions that apply to them as they struggle to find the best ways to meet their or their family member’s anticipated long-term care needs.
Two such terms are MEDICARE and MEDICAID. Clients and even certain professional often confuse one with the other, and yet the terms refer to types of benefits that are radically different.

Of interest for covered employers is the Act’s extension of the Families First Coronavirus Response Act’s (FFCRA) tax credit provisions - learn more here: https://www.kmgslaw.com/news/american-rescue-plan-act-of-2021-extended-ffcra-tax-credits
