(CNN)Extra premium subsidies approved as part of the recent stimulus bill will be available on the federal Affordable Care Act exchange starting on Thursday.
Current enrollees and those seeking Obamacare coverage can access the additional help for two years as part of the $1.9 trillion relief package that President Joe Biden signed in early March.
However, those who are out of work likely won't be able to sign up for the $0 premium coverage called for in the stimulus plan until July, according to the Department of Health and Human Services, though they may qualify now for zero- or low-cost policies based on their income. This provision is taking longer to implement because it is new.
