With the new health care reform, states were to have set up high-risk health insurance pools for individuals with pre-existing conditions that could not get coverage in the private market.
This pool was to be in effect on 6/1/2010, but Illinois has yet to establish.
Individual's eligible for coverage must have gone without health insurance for the past 6 months in order to apply.
Currently, Illinois has always had The Illinois Comprehensive Health Insurance Plan (ICHIP) for high-risk insured's. There were 4 types of coverage available, and depending on coverage there is a 6 month waiting period for coverage on pre-existing conditions. There is no current requirement to how long you have been without health insurance for.
