Excerpt: The law specifically requires that the individual (or a person other than the employer of the severed employee) pay 35% to get the 65% credit. What if a severance arrangement includes an employer subsidy for COBRA? It would be pretty stupid for an employer to pay money that could have been paid by the government. Renegotiation of subsidized severance arrangements, possibly with a taxable cash-out or a deferral of the subsidy to 2010, may make sense for arrangements in effect now.

Excerpt: Massachusetts employers must get employees to complete a HIRD Form after they decline coverage under (i) an employer's group health insurance plan, or (ii) a Section 125 plan which permits employees to purchase health insurance on a pre-tax basis.... The signature deadline is 30 days after the end of open enrollment periods for such plans, or 30 days after a decline which did not occur during open enrollment.
