Given that this is a temporary form of coverage, what happens to people when the PCIP terminates in 2014?
When the PCIP terminates on January 1, 2014, other provisions of health reform will go into effect, and state health benefit exchanges will be available for individuals to purchase coverage. At that time, premium and cost-sharing subsidies will be available for individuals with incomes between $14,404 and $57,616 and for families of four with incomes between $29,327 and $88,200. People will also be able to choose to purchase coverage in the individual market.
