Insurance Program For Pre-Existing Conditions Runs Dry by Misty Williams. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. March 15, 2013.
The Pre-Existing Conditions Insurance Plan (PCIP) was designed to be a bridge program for high-risk individuals with preexisting conditions until January when people will be able to obtain insurance on online insurance exchanges. To qualify for the program applicants had to be without insurance for six months before they could apply. For this and other reasons, costs exceeded estimates and new applications are not being accepted as of February 16.
