Introducing the The KnowCOBRA.com ARRA Premium Assistance Guide for Employers

The KnowCOBRA.com guide spells out in clear and simple terms what an employer needs to understand about the new rules. Employers may be surprised that they are responsible for certain aspects of ARRA even if they use a COBRA administrator. The guide is designed to help an employer whether they use a COBRA administrator or not.

The guide is written by Bob Radecki, the founder and former President of A.E. Roberts Company. Bob started teaching employers how to comply with COBRA in 1988 and has helped thousands of employers nationwide to understand their COBRA obligations. Bob is also a consultant to a number of COBRA administrators.

The KnowCOBRA.com guide to the COBRA Premium Assistance Rules is more than simply a collection of official documents already available free from government websites, and at only $39, the guide is a fraction of the cost of other COBRA guides and manuals.

	Involuntary Termination Criteria - Guideline and strategies to assist the employer in determining if an individual is eligible for the subsidy based on an involuntary termination.
	Clear Instructions on the Notice Requirements - ARRA requires the employer to send three different notices to different categories of individuals. The KnowCOBRA.com guide clearly explains how each notice is to be used, which individuals must get each notice and when each notice must be sent
	Recommendations on how to improve the DOL model notices - Other guides and services simply provide copies of the publicly available notices and forms. The KnowCOBRA.com guide provides useful analysis and suggestions for improving the notices, making them more user friendly while still retaining the required elements.
	Free e-mail Updates - The COBRA subsidy rules were implemented on a very short timeframe and the guidance from the DOL and IRS is still evolving. Receive free email updates on important changes to the rules and new regulatory guidance.
	Instructions for Recovering Premiums Paid - The IRS has published a list of seven different types of data the employer must have available to support the credits applied toward payroll taxes. The guide sorts through the requirements and helps the employer create an effective method to track the necessary information.
	Detailed Resource List - Information about and links to official government information regarding the ARRA COBRA rules.
