RWJF Uninsured Data

Slide 1: Facts on Health Coverage in the USA Updated February 2008 Prepared for Cover the Uninsured and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation by the Employee Benefit Research Institute (EBRI) using the Census Bureau’s Current Population Survey (CPS) numbers. Although EBRI uses CPS numbers, the same dataset used by the Census Bureau, EBRI estimates may vary from Census estimates due to the fact that EBRI's analysis excludes Medicare beneficiaries and active-duty military. Please note that EBRI's analysis defines children as individuals ages 0-17, whereas other sources may define children as ages 0-18. This difference accounts for the variance between the reported numbers of uninsured children, depending on the source and method of analysis. 1
