CARES Act Webinar: Implementing, Monitoring, and Reporting
This event qualifies for 2 CPEs
As the U.S. declared a public health emergency on Feb. 3, 2020, COVID related cases surpassed 9,800 around the world quickly becoming a pandemic by March 11, 2020, which the World Health Organization declared (source: https://www.ajmc.com/view/a-timeline-of-covid19-developments-in-2020). Thus, the CARES Act was established on March 27, 2020, with a $150 billion Coronavirus Relief Fund. The CARES Act provided direct payments to Americans to cover expenses related to public health emergencies concerning COVID-19; however, little guidance was provided to local and state governments on how to monitor and control payments — not including how to report payment data back to the federal government.
On March 11, 2021, the American Rescue Plan of 2021 (ARP) was established to further combat the effects of the coronavirus and provide additional direct payments to Americans, businesses, as well as State, Local and Higher Education entities in an effort to accelerate the recovery from the coronavirus pandemic.
In this guided training and discussion related to the CARES Act, attendees will receive a bird’s eye view and insights from government leaders, subject matter experts and advisory experts working with the CARES Act on a daily basis.
