Exhibit 7.4: The Nonelderly Uninsured by Poverty Level, 2004
In 2004, almost two-thirds (64.3%) of the uninsured were from families with incomes below 200% of the federal poverty level (or FPL, which was $19,307 for a family of four in 2004). More than one-third (36.8%) of the uninsured had incomes below poverty, and an additional 27.5% had incomes below twice poverty.
 
 

Notes: The federal poverty level was defined as $19,307 for a family of four in 2004.
