Exhibit 2.1: Trends in Health Coverage for the Nonelderly Population, 2002 and 2003
The percent of the nonelderly population without insurance rose from 17.3% in 2002 to 17.7% in 2003 (or 44.7 million uninsured), an increase of 1.4 million over 2002. The proportion of Americans with employer-based insurance declined from 63.3% in 2002 to 61.9% in 2003.
 
 

Notes: Medicaid/Other Public includes the State Children’s Health Insurance Program, other state programs, Medicare, and military-related coverage. Medicare and military coverage represent 2% of health coverage among the nonelderly.
