65% Extension
The COBRA subsidy has been extended. Washington earlier passed a 65% COBRA subsidy, which was set to expire on December 31st. The entitlement has just been extended to February 28, 2010. The entitlement allows eligible individuals to receive a 65% subsidy of their COBRA health insurance premiums. The new law also extends the subsidy period from nine months to fifteen months.
