If you are have health problems that have kept you from obtaining health insurance due to your health problems, Alaska has the following program available for you.

Comprehensive Health Insurance Association (CHIA)

In 1992, the Alaska legislature established a health insurance program for high-risk individuals. This law allows all individuals who have been refused coverage by at least two insurers, who have a specified medical condition, or who meet certain other criteria, to purchase coverage through the CHIA. Individuals who meet the state definition of a federally defined eligible individual or an individual eligible under the Trade Adjustment Assistance Reform Act of 2002 can receive coverage through the CHIA without a waiting period. A federally defined eligible individual is an individual whose most recent coverage was under a group health plan; who had at least 18 months of health insurance coverage; who has exhausted any available COBRA coverage; whose most recent coverage was not terminated due to nonpayment of premiums or fraud; who does not have other health insurance coverage; and who is not eligible for other coverage.

The premium rates for the program are approximately 145% of the average standard risk rate for health insurance plans sold in Alaska with similar benefits.

For information on this program, contact the Division of Insurance in Anchorage at 1‑800-467-8725 (in Alaska only) or (907) 269-7900.
