1.8 Million New Yorkers Without Health Insurance. (04 Jun 2006)
The article reports that the Kaiser Commission on Medicaid and the Uninsured reveals that while people of color constitute 34 percent of the nation's population, they account for 52 percent of the uninsured. A major reason for this discrepancy is the greater employment of African Americans and Latinos in low-wage jobs, where insurance coverage is often unavailable or unaffordable. The annual survey of low-income New Yorkers, "The Unheard Third," confirms that holding a job no longer guarantees a worker benefits such as health insurance. The survey reveals that 40 percent of fulltime workers living below the poverty line don't get health coverage for themselves through their employer.Full Text Word Count:747Database: Academic Search Premier
