1. The Coronavirus Food Assistance Program, initially established by the CARES Act, provides direct support to farmers and ranchers where prices and market supply chains have been impacted
by the COVID-19 pandemic.
2. The Paycheck Protection Program, initially established by the CARES Act, provides forgivable loans to help small businesses and nonprofit institutions make payroll and cover other expenses.
It also provides funding to reimburse private lending institutions for the costs of administering these loans. For more information, see "How does the Paycheck Protection Program
impact the national income and product accounts (NIPAs)?".
3. A two percent reduction in reimbursements paid to Medicare service providers that went into effect in 2013 was initially suspended by the CARES Act. The resulting increased reimbursement rates
went into effect beginning on May 1, 2020.
4. Unemployment insurance benefits were expanded through several programs that were initially established through the CARES Act. For more information, see "How will the expansion of
unemployment benefits in response to the COVID-19 pandemic be recorded in the NIPAs?".
5. Economic impact payments, initially established by the CARES Act, provide direct payments to individuals. For more information, see "How are federal economic impact payments to support individuals
during the COVID-19 pandemic recorded in the NIPAs?".
6. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) was authorized to make payments from the Disaster Relief Fund to supplement wages lost as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
7. The Department of Health and Human Services distributes money from the Provider Relief Fund to hospitals and health care providers on the front lines of the coronavirus response. This funding
supports health care-related expenses or lost revenue attributable to COVID-19 and ensures uninsured Americans can get treatment for COVID-19. In the NIPAs, funds provided to nonprofit
hospitals are recorded as social benefits.
8. Interest payments due on certain categories of federally-held student loans were initially suspended by the CARES Act. For more information, see "How does the federal response to the COVID-19
pandemic affect BEA's estimate of personal interest payments?".
NOTE: For national statistics detailing the amount and sources of people’s incomes for each month, BEA publishes the total level of personal income at an annualized rate. BEA does this so that
monthly estimates of personal income can be easily compared to quarterly estimates of personal income included in BEA's quarterly gross domestic product report, for example. To be
consistent, the figures in this table also are annualized. For more information, see the FAQ "Why does BEA publish estimates at annual rates?" on BEA's website.
Data on this table will be superseded by updated estimates.

1. The Coronavirus Food Assistance Program, initially established by the CARES Act, provides direct support to farmers and ranchers where prices and market supply chains have been impacted
by the COVID-19 pandemic.
2. The Paycheck Protection Program, initially established by the CARES Act, provides forgivable loans to help small businesses and nonprofit institutions make payroll and cover other expenses.
It also provides funding to reimburse private lending institutions for the costs of administering these loans. For more information, see "How does the Paycheck Protection Program
impact the national income and product accounts (NIPAs)?".
3. A two percent reduction in reimbursements paid to Medicare service providers that went into effect in 2013 was initially suspended by the CARES Act. The resulting increased reimbursement rates
went into effect beginning on May 1, 2020.
4. Unemployment insurance benefits were expanded through several programs that were initially established through the CARES Act. For more information, see "How will the expansion of
unemployment benefits in response to the COVID-19 pandemic be recorded in the NIPAs?".
5. Economic impact payments, initially established by the CARES Act, provide direct payments to individuals. For more information, see "How are federal economic impact payments to support individuals
during the COVID-19 pandemic recorded in the NIPAs?".
6. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) was authorized to make payments from the Disaster Relief Fund to supplement wages lost as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
7. The Department of Health and Human Services distributes money from the Provider Relief Fund to hospitals and health care providers on the front lines of the coronavirus response. This funding
supports health care-related expenses or lost revenue attributable to COVID-19 and ensures uninsured Americans can get treatment for COVID-19. In the NIPAs, funds provided to nonprofit
hospitals are recorded as social benefits.
8. Interest payments due on certain categories of federally-held student loans were initially suspended by the CARES Act. For more information, see "How does the federal response to the COVID-19
pandemic affect BEA's estimate of personal interest payments?".
NOTE: For national statistics detailing the amount and sources of people’s incomes for each month, BEA publishes the total level of personal income at an annualized rate. BEA does this so that
monthly estimates of personal income can be easily compared to quarterly estimates of personal income included in BEA's quarterly gross domestic product report, for example. To be consistent,
the figures in this table also are annualized. For more information, see the FAQ "Why does BEA publish estimates at annual rates?" on BEA's website.
Data on this table will be superseded by updated estimates.
