States were given the option to run their own PCIP with federal funding or allow the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to run the program in their state. Early estimates by the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) suggested that the program could cover an average of 200,000 individuals per year with the $5 billion appropriated in PPACA, but that demand would likely be greater.
