I live in CA and I have private insurance. I know a few CFers who are on GHPP, one of them had his double lung transplant while on GHPP. They are doing great. The biggest complaint that I have heard about GHPP is the limitation that it gives you. Not all docs take it, etc. I personally don't trust state programs, esp with the CA economy the way it is. But, there are some great care centers in CA (USC, UCLA, Stanford, etc).
