Insuring the Uninsurable: An Overview of State High-Risk Health Insurance Pools.

Notes that most state high-risk insurance pools provide access to health insurance for few of those denied coverage in the private market. High premiums, limited benefit packages, and waiting periods limited access. In addition, some states' pools are closed to new enrollees or have long waiting lists, and the existence of pools is rarely publicized. Available from the Commonwealth Fund at 1-888-777-2744.
