It will be rather difficult for you to get coverage with what you describe here. It will be very difficult to get coverage for your daughter. Even the health care plan which will start being put into motion by the current administration cannot force a physician to accept patients.

Crawford - do you know know when the full coverage for kids will actually be in place?

The coverage for children came into being in September 2010. Some details are here:

Children's Pre-Existing Conditions | HealthCare.gov
