People with pre-exiting conditions are often shut out of  the health insurance market. The pre-existing conditions insurance program  allows those who qualify to get good insurance coverage at reasonable rates. The same rates that healthy people get. Spokesman from the  Center for Medicare & Medicare Services, Mike Fierberg says unfortunately, not very many people are aware of the program.
