On March 11, 2021, President Biden signed the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA)  into law. This $1.9 trillion COVID-19 response and economic stimulus package contains several interest provisions to the health care industry. Read on for more details:

OFF-Exchange Marketplace: Not eligible for Federal Tax Credit in 2020; you might qualify now!

  • Your income may now quality for Federal Assistance to decrease your Health Insurance Premiums during the Special Election Period (SEP) until August 15, 2021.

ON-Exchange Marketplace: Excellent time to re-verify your eligibility; you might be entitled to more Federal assistance.

  • If you already receive a subsidy, it’s possible for a more significant reduction under the ARPA.
