Here are the top 4 points you should know about how this newest COVID-19 relief bill impacts ACA enrollments:

1. Larger subsidies for 100—400% FPL. Most significantly, enrollees who are within 100 - 150% FPL are eligible for a $0 premium silver plan with substantial cost sharing reductions that lower deductibles.

2. Expanded APTC eligibility to those above 400% FPL. The new bill caps the percentage of income paid for a Marketplace benchmark silver premium to 8.5%, which makes ACA coverage significantly more affordable for enrollees who traditionally had too high of an income to qualify.

3. APTC guarantees for enrollees receiving unemployment compensation. If an enrollee is receiving unemployment compensation, they will qualify for subsidies as if their income is 133% FPL. This means these enrollees are eligible for a silver plan with a $0 premium and significant cost sharing reductions.

4. These subsidies are retroactive to January 1st, 2021.

Van Taylor had a town hall call last night. If you need help recovering from the deep freeze, the order you do things matters. First, file a homeowner's/renter's claim with your insurance company. Then ask for FEMA assistance, which is a grant (doesn't have to be paid back). If you are declined FEMA assistance, contact the Small Business Administration and ask for their assistance, which is a loan. The SBA will do a credit check because the loan has to be paid back. If you do not qualify for an SBA loan, you can go back to FEMA and ask again. If you bypass FEMA, SBA will send you back to them.
