State High Risk Pools for Health Coverage: Information Updated January 2009
National Conference o State Legislatures Link to more items from this source
Jan. 11, 2009
Excerpt: In response to the problems of uninsurable individuals, at least 36 states have implemented 'high risk health pools.' Most were established by state statute, creating a non-profit organization to offer comprehensive health insurance to individuals who are unable to buy regular health insurance because of their health status. The programs offer coverage of last resort for 1) Uninsurable individuals, 2) federally-eligible individuals specified by HIPAA and 3) those eligible for the federal Health Coverage Tax Credit (HCTC). The agencies that run these programs created the 'National Association of State Comprehensive Health Insurance Plans' (NASCHIP), which provides detailed information on the operational state programs listed [on the target page]. Their web site, www.naschip.org contains extensive descriptions of individual programs as well as news of recent developments affecting high risk pools.
