Sick-Leave Eligible Retirees and the COBRA ARPA Subsidy

The American Rescue Plan Act (ARP) provides for temporary 100% COBRA premium subsidies for eligible former employees who suffered an involuntary job loss, and for current or former employees who have suffered a reduction in hours that made them COBRA-eligible. A member might qualify both to use their sick leave in retirement and for the COBRA subsidy.
