CRAP

The Comprehensive Reapportionment and Assistance Package (CRAP) otherwise known as the Spendulus Bill contains COBRA enhancements we have already posted.

We are still researching for additional information and found this at USA Today.

Employees who left voluntarily or retired are still eligible for COBRA, but not the subsidy, says Kathryn Bakich, senior vice president and head of the health care compliance practice at Segal Co.

Another comment of interest is this.

Laid-off employees who didn’t sign up for COBRA when they lost their jobs will have 60 days to enroll. Those who signed up and have been paying full premiums won’t get a rebate, but their payments will drop in March.

We also found this summary from Marketwire.

Clearly there are more questions than answers. Any time you deal with the government that is pretty much par for the course.
