Reinsurance remains a popular strategy for states who wish to maintain or increase coverage. This new In Focus Issue Brief is designed to serve as a technical guide for states who are interested in building a reinsurance program. It follows up the October 2004 SCI Issue Brief by Deborah Chollet, The Role of Reinsurance in State Efforts to Expand Coverage.
For additional information on a state program that uses reinsurance, please examine the SCI Profile in Coverage on Healthy NY.
