Abstract:
The CO-OP program will provide nonprofits with loans to fund start-up costs and State reserve requirements, in the form of Start-up Loans and Solvency Loans.1 An applicant may apply for ; (1) joint Start-up and Solvency Loans;2 or (3) only a Solvency Loan. The first option provides the recipient with both a Start-up and a Solvency Loan issued through a single application. Start-up Loans are intended to assist loan recipients with the many start-up costs associated with establishing a new health insurance issuer. Solvency Loans are intended to assist loan recipients with meeting the solvency requirements of States in which the applicant seeks to be licensed to issue qualified health plans.. CMS anticipates that the Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) will be released in early summer 2011. Applications will be due in early fall 2011 and on a quarterly basis thereafter. Applications will be accepted for as long as funding is available. Loan awards will be announced within approximately 75 days after each completed application is received.
