WA State health care reform high risk pool
Got this from a friend who is attending implementation meetings--

The high risk pool mandated by PPACA is being set up by the OIC in Washington State. They expect it to be up and running by July 1. Premiums will probably be on the order of $800+/month, so it's not clear how many people will take advantage of it. There's only $102 million available for funding it for the next 3 1/2 years until the exchange starts, and denying coverage for pre-existing conditions will be prohibited.
