The healthcare reform law says that the new Federal/State risk pools were to be up and running by now. I asked a question here before of how this might worsen the situation of those with pre-existing conditions who lives in states that already have a high risk pool since the new law requires that one be without insurance for 6 months to be eligible for the new pool.
Anybody have a state by state update on what's changed? And details like whether these new plans offer unlimited lifetime payouts unlike current high risk pool plans. I only could find an overview of the new law as it relates to this topic - link below.
