Description: Section 3001 of the
American Recovery and Reinvestment
Act of 2009 (ARRA) provides
‘‘Assistance Eligible Individuals’’ with
the right to pay reduced COBRA
premiums for up to 9 months. To be
considered an ‘‘Assistance Eligible
Individual’’ and receive premium
reduction an individual must: (1) be
eligible for, and elect, COBRA
continuation coverage, (2) have
experienced an involuntary termination
of employment which led to the COBRA
election opportunity, (3) have
experienced the involuntary termination
during the period beginning September
1, 2008, and ending December 31, 2009.
Individuals who experienced an
involuntary termination of employment
at any time between September 1, 2008,
and February 16, 2009, and were
offered, but did not elect, COBRA
coverage or who elected COBRA and
subsequently dropped it may have the
right to an additional 60-day election
period.
ARRA section 3001(a)(7)(D) requires
the Secretary of Labor to consult with
the Secretaries of Treasury and Health
and Human Services to develop model
notices no later than 30 days after the
date of enactment for use by group
health plan and other entities, that,
pursuant to ARRA, must provide notices
to affected individuals regarding the
availability of premium reductions and
the additional election period for health
care continuation coverage. The ICR
relates to the issuance of the model
notices.
Why are we requesting Emergency
Processing? If the Department were to
comply with standard PRA clearance
procedures, it would not be able to
publish the model notices within 30
days after the ARRA enactment date.

Departmental Clearance Officer.
