Miami-Dade County, Fla.’s Board of County Commissioners has approved a pilot program that aims to offer affordable health insurance to residents and businesses. The Miami-Dade Blue health plan, which is still pending approval by the Florida Office of Insurance Regulation in Tallahassee, will focus on the 600,000 county residents under the age of 65 who cannot afford private health insurance and who do not qualify for other public programs, such as Medicaid and KidCare.
