Provider Financial Support Options
- Section 1102, Paycheck Protection Program: This program allocates $349 billion, available through June 30, to provide eligible small businesses with government-backed loans through the Small Business Administration (SBA). These loans may be forgiven if the borrower keeps employees on payroll.
- Loan amounts will be equal to 10 weeks of company payroll, up to $10 million, and may be utilized to pay payroll, rent, and utilities to keep company doors open.
- Eight weeks of payroll, rent, mortgage payments, and utilities may be forgiven if the company maintains its workforce.
- Forgiveness amounts will be reduced proportional to layoffs or salary reductions.
- Businesses which rehire laid off employees may still benefit from full loan forgiveness.
- All small businesses and 501(c)(3) nonprofits with fewer than 500 employees or that meet the SBA’s small business criteria, and independent contractors.
- The program operates directly through financial institutions, with waivers of most requirements normally associated with these types of loans. Applicants only need to make a good faith certification of the loan’s necessity and that the loan will be used to retain workers; no hardship demonstration is required.
- Section 1110, Emergency EIDL Grants: Expands eligibility for access to Economic Injury Disaster Loans (EIDL) to the same entities eligible for the Paycheck Protection Program (All small businesses and 501(c)(3) nonprofits with fewer than 500 employees or that meet the SBA’s small business criteria, and independent contractors). Private non-profits are also eligible.
- IDL provides operational liquidity of up to $2 million to small businesses in designated disaster areas.
- Any EIDL loans made in response to COVID-19 before December 31, 2020 will certain requirements waived.
- EIDL loan recipients may request an advance on the loan of $10,000, the SBA will disburse within three days. This advance does not need to be repaid and thus functions as a grant. SBA is allocated $10 billion for this grant program.
