Subcommittee on the Community Effects of Uninsured Populations Print   Email


This subcommittee drafted the report, A Shared Destiny: Community Effects of Uninsurance, submitted to the Committee on the Consequences of Uninsurance for issuance. This report identified the nature and magnitude of effects on geographically defined communities where a portion of the population lacks health insurance. The report examined the geographic distribution of the uninsured and focus on communities (municipalities, metropolitan and rural areas, and states) that have large uninsured populations. The interactions of community uninsurance rates with economic and industrial characteristics, public health and welfare program policies, ethnic composition, and health care professional and institutional resources were explored and documented.  More information on this subcommittee.
