Pre-Existing Condition Insurance Plan Reaches Tiny Fraction Of Uninsured
Enrollment has almost reached 50,000.
BUT the projected enrollment by this time:
"Estimates of how many people would receive coverage from the new Pre-Existing Condition Insurance Plan varied, but the lowest was that the initiative would reach an average of 200,000 people per year.
The chief actuary for Medicare predicted the PCIP would pick up 375,000 before 2011.
NOTE: Enrollment Projection off by 650%!
EXCELLENT Planning!
But then the COST...
Not only has enrollment been low, but the cost of insuring enrollees has been more than double expectations.
The program's actuaries figured in 2010 that it would cost $13,026 per enrollee per year, slightly above the cost for enrollees in state pools. In August 2011, the actuaries revised that estimate upward to $28,994, according to an HHS report released Thursday.
That is 122% MORE then estimated cost!
