These estimates exclude hospitalizations for institutionalized persons and those who died while hospitalized.
Estimates are for persons 1-64 years of age and are age-adjusted to the year 2000 standard population using four age groups: 1-17 years, 18-44 years, 45-54 years, and 55-64 years. The disability measure is age-adjusted using the three adult age groups.
Health insurance categories are mutually exclusive. Persons who reported both Medicaid and private coverage are classified as having private coverage. Starting with 1997 data, state-sponsored health plan coverage is included as Medicaid coverage. Starting with 1999 data, coverage by the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) is included with Medicaid coverage. In addition to private and Medicaid, the insured category also includes military, other government, and Medicare coverage. Persons not covered by private insurance, Medicaid, CHIP, state-sponsored or other government-sponsored health plans (starting in 1997), Medicare, or military plans are considered to have no health insurance coverage. Persons with only Indian Health Service coverage are considered to have no health insurance coverage.
