Subsidized Health Insurance bypasses Florida
Government health insurance officials are dividing up nearly $49 million among states that provide subsidized individual health insurance to people who can’t buy it because they have pre existing medical conditions. Our Department of Health and Human Services made the announcement yesterday in a conference near Miami Florida. Floridians must understand that none of that money will be coming to Florida. How come? Why was Florida left out of the subsidized handout?
Did you know that Florida closed its high-risk pool for the medically uninsurable in 1992? They have not even come close to thinking that they should reopen this program. Most states have a High Risk Pool…. The state has therefore been unable to receive any of the $286 million HHS has passed out since 2003.
What do you think? Should Florida bring back the high risk pool? That would enable insurance agents to help everyone in the sunshine state, not just the healthy.

I would like to know more as to the reason why the High Risk Pool got taken away and why other states get it and Florida does not. Seems like something every state should have.

Why did Florida get rid of the high risk pool to begin with? Is there some downside to having it that’s not stated in this article?

IFlorida needs to look closely at reopening the program for all of these unhealthy uninsurable people. I would also like to know why they got rid of it?

Of course they should. Leaving these people without insurance creates greater liabilities for the citizens of Florida than would otherwise be the case.

Why did Florida get rid of the high risk pool? That is crazy? All of the other major big states have it. California, Texas, the list goes on and on. Is Florida to RED to get what residents are in need of? They say the programs they have work. I’d beg to differ on that..

Please bring back the high risk pool Florida. Did they get rid of it to make expensive group coverage the only option to these people with pre-existings? What about all the tax dollars spent for the unpaid claims when these people go to the doctor or E.R.? There has to more then meets the eye with this, only time will tell…. *sigh*
