Research Note: The Long-Term Uninsured

Publication Date

Researchers at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) performed an analysis of the Medical Expenditure Panel Survey (MEPS) to investigate the characteristics of those who are uninsured for 13-24 months over a two-year period. For this analysis people uninsured for over one year are referred to as "the long-term uninsured."
