More than 46 million people in the United States had no health insurance coverage in 2008—more than one in every six (17.4%) of the population under age 65. Having a clear picture of who the uninsured are is fundamental to addressing this nation-wide problem.

This chartbook provides figures and tables on the uninsured and health insurance coverage for the following subpopulations: nonelderly, children, nonelderly adults and working adults. Figures are provided for important social, economic, and health status determinates of health insurance coverage, including age, gender, family income and work status, education, race/ethnicity, household type, citizenship and health status.

The chartbook slides can be used to create customized PowerPoint slideshows to download or print.
