I was let go on June 30, 2021. I received the paperwork for the COBRA subsidy under the ARPA.
It looks like I qualify, however, the COBRA coverage is ~$800/month. While going through covered California can get me a similar plan for around ~300/month.
The COBRA packet explains that I ‘MAY’ be eligible for special enrollment after the premium assistance ends on September 30. How do I ensure this will be the case?
It would be great to not have to pay for health insurance for the next 3 months (saving me ~$900). But I don’t want to be tied to a ~$800/month premium after that.
Does anyone have experience with this?
