Changes In Health Insurance

The uninsured rate for Americans under age 65 fell from 11.1% in 2019 to 10.5% in 2021, according to new report by the Department of Health and Human Services. The analysis shows that the national uninsured rate declined during this period, with larger coverage gains for younger adults; Latino, American Indian, and Alaska Native individuals; non-English speaking adults; and people living in states that recently expanded Medicaid.
