| Description: |
Significant changes to COBRA administration and COBRA compliance deadlines have meant increased work for employers and their service providers in 2009. But these burdens are now more likely to run into early 2011, as Congress considers two bills that would extend the ARRA COBRA premium subsidy for several more months, These proposals—which have strong momentum because of the still-weak economy—could require significant changes to the way COBRA is administered, as even higher numbers of individuals take advantage of the subsidy, and as employers face more notice and administrative requirements because the proposals would allow certain individuals who exhausted all coverage under the previous ARRA subsidy law to get back on COBRA coverage. This 90-minute interactive audio conference will give you everything you need to know about latest proposals, including sample documents and legal notices that you can use to remain up-to-date and in compliance. Plus you’ll have time to get your questions answered live.
Program Highlights:- What new COBRA notice obligations are there?
- How do SPDs, election forms, etc. need to be amended?
- What is in the latest government guidance on COBRA subsidies?
- How long will the COBRA subsidy be available?
- Who can take advantage of the subsidy?

The live versions are interactive, meaning that participants can ask questions in real time, plus are a very cost-effective form a training because 1) you receive fast, convenient learning without any out-of-office time; 2) you can invite as many colleagues as you'd like to listen in on a single phone line; 3) you incur no travel expenses; and 4) you and your colleagues are back at work immediately after the session ends!
