The Uninsured by State and Congressional District, 2010

Summary
The total U.S. civilian non-institutionalized population in 2010 was estimated to be slightly more
than 304 million, of whom 15.5%, or 47.2 million, were estimated by the American Community
Survey to be without health insurance or uninsured. The uninsured are far more likely than those
with health insurance to report problems getting needed medical care, less likely to follow
recommended treatments because of costs, have less access to care, receive less preventive care,
and are more likely to be hospitalized for avoidable health problems. Moreover, it is widely
believed that the uninsured, when they need care, are less able to pay for their care since they do
not have health insurance and therefore it is further assumed that other payers take on the
financial burden of their care through higher prices.
Many Americans obtain their health insurance through employers. Local factors such as labor
market conditions, the mix of firms and firm sizes, and demographic factors such as age, play a
role in the proportion of uninsured among those of working age. The Medicare program has
effectively provided health insurance to almost all elderly Americans, while the Medicaid
program and the State Children’s Health Insurance Program have expanded health insurance
coverage to both the poor and to children. State policies to expand coverage, including
implementing Medicaid waivers to expand coverage, account for some of the differences across
states in the proportion of uninsureds. Similarly, state policies to expand coverage, such as
employer or personal mandates to purchase insurance in Hawaii and Massachusetts, further
explain some of the differences in the number of uninsureds across states.
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA, P.L. 111-148, as amended), through an
expansion of Medicaid and the creation of state health insurance exchanges, is projected by the
Congressional Budget Office to reduce the share of legal non-elderly residents without health
insurance to 6% of the population by 2019.
This report, using the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2010 American Community Survey, details
differences in the number and proportion of uninsured across states, within states, and across
demographic groups.

The Uninsured by State and Congressional District, 2010

Background
The Uninsured
Roughly 15.5% of Americans are not covered by health insurance.1 The uninsured are more
likely to2
• report problems getting needed medical care, and
• be hospitalized for avoidable health problems.
In addition, they are less likely, among other things, to
• follow recommended treatments because of costs,
• have access to care, or
• receive preventive care.
Moreover, it is widely believed that the uninsured, when they need care, face higher prices since
they do not benefit from negotiated discounts.3 In addition, they are less able to pay for their care
since they do not have health insurance and therefore other payers are forced indirectly to assume
the financial burden of their care through higher prices.
While two-thirds of the uninsured are poor or near poor (i.e., with family incomes less than 133%
of federal poverty level [FPL]), in 2008 it was estimated that “the uninsured contributed $30
billion toward their own medical care. In addition, they benefited from $56 billion in
uncompensated care—$43 billion of which was government spending for care on behalf of the
uninsured (Medicaid disproportionate share hospital (DSH) and supplemental payment programs,
Medicare DSH and indirect medical education (IME) payments,4 various direct care programs,
and state and local tax appropriations).”5 The Institute of Medicine has estimated that among

surveys provide consistent and reliable estimates over time. See Office of the Assistant Secretary for Planning and

individuals aged 25-64, approximately 18,000 excess deaths per year can be attributed to the lack
of health insurance.6
As this report details, there are considerable differences across states, within states, and across
demographic groups in the proportion of uninsured. The Medicare program has effectively
provided health insurance to almost all elderly Americans, while the Medicaid program and the
State Children’s Health Insurance Program have expanded health insurance coverage to both the
poor and to children. State policies to expand health insurance coverage, including Medicaid
waivers, account for some of the differences across states in the proportion of uninsureds.7 For
instance, Vermont has extended Medicaid benefits to childless adults with incomes up to 150% of
FPL and 8.0% of the state’s population is uninsured.8 Similarly, state policies such as employer or
personal mandates to purchase health insurance in Hawaii and Massachusetts further explain
some of the differences.
The explanation for variations in health insurance coverage among working adults is complex
because it must include decisions on the part of employers to offer coverage and decisions
regarding the nature of the coverage, including cost sharing, if insurance is offered. In addition, it
needs to take into consideration employees’ decisions to purchase insurance. According to the
Kaiser Family Foundation, 61% of the non-elderly population received employer-sponsored
health insurance in 2010.9 While employer-based health insurance is nearly universally offered by
large employers (over 200 employees), only 59% of small firms (three to nine employees) offered
health insurance.10 Thus, the working uninsured, poor, and unemployed who are not otherwise
eligible for a public program, covered under a family member’s policy, or cannot afford coverage
are either relegated to the more expensive individual market or to do without coverage.
To understand those who are employed and have health insurance, one needs to understand the
decision-making process that firms engage in when deciding whether to offer employees health
insurance and how to share these costs. While many policy analysts have focused on the tax
treatment of health insurance premiums as one impetus for employer provided health insurance,
other factors such as local labor market conditions and company image are also likely to play a
role in these decisions. Even if one is employed and works for a firm that offers health insurance,
there is a further set of calculations that employees make regarding whether to take-up the offer
of health insurance. These considerations include one’s current health status, one’s expectation of
future health insurance requirements, cost (including cost sharing of the premium, deductibles,
and coinsurance), and the availability of other benefits through Section 125 cafeteria plans (where
employees can personalize benefits from a set of offerings). In 2005, it was estimated that about
7% of those who are offered employer health insurance are actually uninsured.11 All of these

factors, in addition to others, will affect the proportion of working-age Americans without health
insurance.
Methodology
This report employs the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2010 American Community Survey (ACS) to
describe the characteristics of the uninsured and provide estimates of the number and percentage
of uninsureds at the national, state, and congressional district level.12 The survey is briefly
described below and more fully documented at the U.S. Census Bureau’s website.13
The ACS is representative of the civilian non-institutionalized population and is designed to
produce reliable estimates of the number of uninsured at the time of the survey. Respondents in
the 2010 survey were sampled between January 1 and December 31, 2010. The ACS is a
mailout/mailback survey with telephone and in-person nonresponse follow-up, conducted
continuously throughout the year, with results consolidated to produce annual estimates using
90% confidence intervals.
This is the second year that the Congressional Research Service (CRS) has used the ACS to
generate these estimates. While this year CRS reports the state-level change in the proportion of
uninsured in 2010 compared to 2008 (see Table 4), in future years CRS will use the ACS to track
changes in the number and proportion of uninsured over a longer period of time.14
The Survey Question
The ACS contains a single multipart question (question 16) addressing health insurance coverage.
The question is replicated below. Someone who responds “no” to every item is characterized as
uninsured as of the date of the survey.15

The ACS and Other Surveys of the Uninsured
There are several national surveys that estimate the uninsured, including the Current Population
Survey (CPS), the American Community Survey (ACS), and the National Health Interview
Survey (NHIS). Each of these efforts have limitations—many of which have been well
documented and acknowledged by the Census Bureau and other research organizations.16 For
example, the CPS and NHIS have historically undercounted Medicaid beneficiaries, and
estimates are less reliable for small states.17
The ACS, with a sample size of roughly 2 million completed surveys per year, allows for
reasonably accurate estimates of areas with a population of 65,000 or more. Therefore, the ACS
does a better job of reducing error associated with small sample size as compared to either the
CPS or NHIS. However, regardless of the survey used, discrepancies exist between survey
estimates of the number of uninsureds and estimates based on state and national administrative
data.

The Uninsured by State and Congressional District, 2010

The ACS is not without its limitations, including that18
• it is primarily a mail survey completed without the assistance of an interviewer;
• there is a single health insurance question that uses an itemized list of coverage
types;
• the survey does not clearly delineate the coverage categories or clearly direct
respondents that “direct purchase” of insurance should be completely
independent of a current or former employer; and
• the characterization of uninsured is not collected directly, rather uninsured status
is derived from the answers to the various types of coverage and the result is not
verified.
Despite these limitations, the ACS produces results that are generally very similar to those
obtained from other surveys and the larger sample size allows for reliable state and congressional
district estimates of the uninsured.19
The Uninsured: National Analysis 2010
Estimates of the Number of Uninsured, by Selected
Demographic Characteristics
The total U.S. civilian non-institutionalized population in 2010 was estimated to be slightly more
than 304 million, of whom 15.5%, or 47.2 million, were uninsured (see Table 1). Men were about
23% more likely to be uninsured than women, with 17.2% of men being uninsured compared to
13.9% of women. Older Americans, above age 65, were least likely to be uninsured (about 1%)
because of the near universal coverage offered by Medicare. Those under age 19 were also less
likely to be uninsured (8.5%), with only about 4.8% of those under age 1 and 6.4% of those under
age 6 being uninsured. Individuals aged 19 through 21 were most likely to be uninsured (30.1%).
Low income is associated with not having health insurance, and individuals with incomes equal
to or less than 133% of FPL are least likely to have health insurance (28.1%) compared to other
income groups. Almost 95% of those at 400% or more of FPL have health insurance.
Marital and employment status are also associated with being uninsured. Single individuals, aged
18-64, were twice as likely to be uninsured compared to married individuals and those working
part-time were almost twice as likely to be uninsured compared to individuals working full-
time.20

20 Full time is defined in ACA §1513(c)(4) as working at least 30 hours a week. To align with ACA’s definition, full
time is defined in this report as working 30 or more hours a week for 50 or more weeks and part-time is defined as
working fewer than 30 hours a week or less than 50 weeks per year.

The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and the Uninsured
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA, P.L. 111-148, as amended) was designed,
in part, to expand access to health insurance. For instance, beginning with renewals from
September 23, 2010, ACA provides that dependent children up to age 26 can remain on their
parent’s health insurance generally beginning with the next subsequent renewal. Beginning in
2014, or sooner at state option, ACA requires states to expand Medicaid to certain individuals
who are under age 65 with income up to 133% of FPL. This reform not only expands eligibility to
a group that is not currently eligible for Medicaid (e.g., low-income childless adults who are not
categorically eligible even though some states have expanded Medicaid eligibility to cover them),
but also raises Medicaid’s mandatory income eligibility level for certain existing groups to 133%
of the FPL.21 The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) and Joint Committee on Taxation
estimated that the coverage expansion provisions in the health reform law would result in a
Medicaid enrollment increase, over what otherwise would have been the case, of approximately
16 million by FY2019.22
Under ACA, health insurance exchanges are to be established in each state to that provide eligible
individuals and small businesses with access to health insurance. In addition, certain individuals
with incomes greater than 133% of FPL up to 400% of FPL are eligible for premium tax credits
and cost-sharing subsidies. CBO estimates that 24 million individuals will obtain health insurance
through an exchange and 5 million more will obtain their insurance through their employer’s
participation in an exchange. While some individuals who are currently privately insured will be
covered through an exchange in the future, CBO estimated that, on net, ACA will reduce the
number of uninsured by 32 million by 2019, leaving 23 million (or 6%) of non-elderly Americans
uninsured.23

21 ACA extended Medicaid coverage of children 6 through 18 up to 133% of FPL but the subsequent Medicare and
Medicaid Extenders Act of 2010 (P.L. 111-309) delayed this extension until 2014.

a. All figures are for the civilian non-institutionalized population. Each value in the table is an estimate with a
confidence interval around the estimate. While the confidence intervals are not presented, they are
available.
b. Above (below) the national level means that subgroup has, with a 90% confidence level, a statistically
significantly higher (lower) likelihood of being uninsured as compared to the overall national average. If a
subgroup is at the national level, there is no statistical difference between the proportion of individuals
uninsured in the subgroup and the national average.
c. The population estimates based on poverty status are less than the total population estimates since these
estimates exclude people in military group quarters, people in college dormitories, and unrelated individuals
under 15 years old as well as institutionalized individuals.
d. Never married, separated, divorced, or widowed.
e. Ful -time: working at least 30 or more hours for 50 or more weeks a year; Part-time: working fewer than

The Uninsured by State and Congressional District, 2010

The Uninsured: Comparisons Across States
Number and Percentage of Uninsureds by State
There is wide variation across states in terms of the percentage of each state’s civilian non-
institutionalized population not having insurance (see Table 2). For instance, residents of Texas
are five times more likely not to have health insurance as residents of Massachusetts. Table 3
rank orders the states from lowest to highest in terms of each state’s percent uninsured population,
and Figure 1 presents the same data on a map of the United States.
While there are many factors that can potentially influence these estimates, 2 of the 10 states with
the lowest percentage of uninsureds, Massachusetts and Hawaii, have insurance mandates (see
Table 3). Hawaii has had an employer health insurance mandate since 1974 that covers
employees who work 20 hours a week or more,24 and Massachusetts adopted an individual
mandate beginning in July 2007. The District of Columbia has a low proportion of uninsureds, in
part due to its low-income childless-adult Medicaid waiver and the District’s Healthcare Alliance
Program, which provides care to non-disabled childless-adults, non-qualified aliens, and some
individuals who are over-income for Medicaid. Most of the remaining states in the top 10, with
the exception of Iowa, also have Medicaid waivers that cover low-income childless adults. Iowa
has a high percentage of non-elderly adults covered by private health insurance and a low
percentage of uninsured children.
Two-Year Change in Uninsureds
While in aggregate there was 0.4% increase in the percentage of uninsureds in the United States
between 2008 and 2010, several states experienced either a disproportionate increase or decrease
in the number of uninsureds. Table 4 presents the percentage of uninsured in each state in 2008,
2009, and 2010, the two-year (2008-2010) percentage point change in the uninsured and the two-
year percentage change in the percentage uninsured.
Arizona, Colorado, Montana, New Mexico, and West Virginia experienced the largest declines in
the percentage uninsured—all decreased at least 1.2 percentage points—while Hawaii, Kansas,
Kentucky, Nevada, and Rhode Island experienced the largest increases in the percentage of
uninsured (column 5)—all increased at least 1.2 percentage points. Arizona, Colorado, Maine,
New Mexico, Vermont, and West Virginia experienced the largest two-year percentage declines—
each more than 7% (column 6). Hawaii, Kansas, Rhode Island, and Virginia experienced the
largest two-year percentage increases—each more than 9% (column 6).

based solely on the point estimates and therefore should be interpreted with the understanding that these

The Uninsured: Characteristics by State, 2010
Table 5 presents the percentage uninsured in each state by four age categories: under age 6, under
age 19, age 21 through age 64, and age 65 and above.25 The first two categories depict two

25 The under age 6 category is relevant as there is mandatory eligibility for Medicaid for these children with family
incomes up to 133% of FPL. The under age 19 category is relevant since there is also mandatory eligibility for
Medicaid for children ages 6 through 18 with family incomes between 100% and 133% of FPL beginning January 1,
2014, although states can choose to extend this coverage prior to 2014.

overlapping groups of children, the third category generally captures working adults, and the final
category describes the elderly who are typically covered by Medicare.
Table 6 rank orders states by the percentage uninsured in each of the age categories, from lowest
to highest. Nationally, 6.4% of children under age 6 and 8.5% of children under age 19 were
uninsured. Of the states, Massachusetts had the lowest proportion of uninsured children, 1.2%
under age 6 and 1.7% under age 19. Connecticut, the District of Columbia, Hawaii, Iowa, Maine,
and Vermont also had low rates of uninsured children. Nevada had the highest proportion of
uninsured children, 14.8% under age 6 and 18.0% under age 19. Alaska, Arizona, Florida, Idaho,
Montana, Texas, and Utah also had high rates of uninsured children.
Among those adults age 21 through 64, nationally 21.2% were uninsured (see Table 5).
Massachusetts had the lowest proportion of non-elderly adults uninsured, with 6.2%, followed by
the District of Columbia, Hawaii, Minnesota, and Vermont. Texas, with 30.9%, had the highest
proportion of non-elderly adults uninsured followed by Florida, Nevada, New Mexico, and
Georgia (see Table 6). While no state had more than 2.3% of its elderly population, over age 65,
uninsured, the proportion across the states ranged from 0.1% in Maine and Vermont to 2.3% in
Alaska.
Table 7 presents the percentage uninsured in each state by three income categories: under 133%
of FPL , between 133% and 400% of FPL, and above 400% of FPL. Table 8 rank orders the
states by the percentage uninsured in each of the three income categories, from lowest to highest.
Nationally, 28.1% of individuals with incomes under 133% of FPL were uninsured, 17.7% of
individuals with incomes between 133% and 400% of FPL were uninsured, and 5.3% of
individuals with incomes over 400% of FPL were uninsured. Massachusetts had the lowest
proportion of uninsured individuals with incomes under 133% of FPL, 8.4%, followed by the
District of Columbia, Vermont, Maine, and Hawaii. Nevada had the highest proportion of
individuals with incomes under 133% of FPL uninsured, 41.6%, followed by Texas, Florida,
Georgia, and Alaska (see Table 8).
Table 9 presents the percentage uninsured in each state by marital status (single/married) among
the adult population age 18 through 64. Table 10 rank orders the states by the percentage
uninsured by marital status, lowest to highest. Nationally, 28.7% of those individuals not married
(single, separated, divorced, or widowed) were uninsured, whereas 14.4% of those individuals
who were married were uninsured. Massachusetts had the lowest proportion of single adults
uninsured, with 9.1%, followed by the District of Columbia, Hawaii, Vermont, and Delaware.
Texas, with 38.6%, had the highest proportion of single adults uninsured followed by Florida,
Alaska, Nevada, and Georgia. Massachusetts had the lowest proportion of married adults
uninsured, with 3.2%, followed by North Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Vermont. Texas,
with 25.0%, had the highest proportion of married adults uninsured followed by Florida, New
Mexico, Nevada, and California.
Table 9 also presents the percentage uninsured in each state by employment status (full/part-time)
among the adult population age 18 though 64 and Table 11 rank orders the states by the
percentage uninsured by employment status, lowest to highest. Nationally, 14.5% of those
employed full-time were uninsured, while 27.6% of those employed part-time were uninsured.26

26 Individuals did not necessarily obtain their health insurance coverage from their employer, and an insured individual
working part-time may have been covered by another family member working full-time.

The Uninsured by State and Congressional District, 2010

Massachusetts had the lowest proportion of full-time employed adults, age 18 through 64
uninsured, with 4.2%, followed by Hawaii, the District of Columbia, Connecticut, and Minnesota.
Texas, with 23.4%, had the highest proportion of full-time employed adults uninsured followed
by Florida, New Mexico, Louisiana and Oklahoma. Massachusetts had the lowest proportion of
part-time employed adults uninsured, with 7.9%, followed by the District of Columbia, Hawaii,
Vermont, and Wisconsin. Texas, with 41.7%, had the highest proportion of part-time employed
adults uninsured followed by Florida, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Nevada.

Notes: Rankings are for the civilian non-institutionalized population age 18-64. While rankings are based on the
point estimates, there is a confidence interval around each estimate, and therefore the rankings should be
interpreted as indicative. Although the intervals at the 90% confidence level are not presented, they are available.
Columns sorted initially by percent uninsured and then alphabetically.
The Uninsured: Characteristics by Congressional
District (111th Congress)
Of the 436 congressional districts (including Washington, DC) 242 had fewer uninsureds in 2010,
as a proportion of their population, than the national average of 15.5% and 75 congressional
districts had fewer then 10% of their populations uninsured in 2010. Of the 10 congressional
districts with the lowest proportion of uninsureds, all 10 were in Massachusetts. The 3rd, 4th, and
6th congressional districts in Massachusetts had the lowest proportion of uninsureds in the country
with 3.6% uninsured. The 5th congressional district in Wisconsin, north and west of Milwaukee,
ranked number 11 in terms of the lowest proportion of uninsureds, with 5.9% uninsured.

The Uninsured by State and Congressional District, 2010

There were 14 congressional districts in 2010 where more than 30% of their populations were
uninsured: six in Texas (9, 15, 18, 28, 29, 30), five in Florida (17, 18, 21, 23, and 25) and three in
California (31, 34, and 47). Texas’s 29th congressional district, east of Houston, had the highest
proportion of uninsureds of any congressional district with 41.1% uninsured.
In the Appendix that follows, two tables are presented for each state and the District of
Columbia. The first table presents the proportion uninsured in 2010 by gender, age, income,
marital status, and employment status. The second table presents the proportion of uninsured for
each congressional district in 2010. Both sets of estimates were generated by the Census Bureau
based on the 2010 American Community Survey.
