Health Insurance Coverage with No Waiting Period

The Pre-existing Condition Insurance Plan-Washington State (PCIP-WA) is the temporary federal high risk pool created as part of the new federal health reform law, the Affordable Care Act.

PCIP-WA provides a new health insurance option to eligible individuals with pre-existing conditions who have been uninsured for at least six months – with no waiting period.

The new plan, funded by the federal government, is temporary and will end January 1, 2014 when full health reform takes effect and people cannot be denied insurance due to a pre-existing medical condition.

Enrollment is limited to available funding. You are encouraged to apply today if you think you may qualify for the plan.

Go to the new Pre-existing Condition Insurance Plan's web site or call the plan toll-free at 1-877-505-0514 to apply.
