This document summarizes research contrasting two measures of health insurance literacy and their relationship to health care access. The researchers analyzed data from a 2015 Minnesota health survey. They found that: 1) Understanding insurance terminology was associated with higher confidence in getting needed care and lower odds of forgone care, while proactive insurance use correlated with lower odds of forgone care. 2) Correlates of health insurance literacy, such as education, varied between the two measures. 3) Both measures captured distinct concepts and translated to improved access, though proactive use only predicted forgone care and not confidence in care. 4) The researchers concluded both measures have value but more work is needed to better operationalize
