Workers’ Health Insurance Info

Data may be in 2003, but still hold relevance. Quick Stats from according to data from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ): February 21, 2003

January to June 2000, more than 60% (71 million) of working Americans under 65 years of age had health insurance that they got through their primary place of employment.

The data wer collected by AHRQ’s Medical Expenditure Panel Survey. They are published in a new statistical brief giving details of the characteristics of U.S. workers who have health insurance obtained from their primary employers. The statistical brief does not focus on other sources of insurance coverage obtained through a family member’s employment, an individually purchased private policy, public insurance, or another job.
