The percentage of people in the United States with health insurance has increased over the past decade with a noticeably sharp increase in 2014 when the Affordable Care Act (ACA) was enacted. As of 2024, around ** percent of people in the United States had some form of health insurance, compared to around ** percent in 2010. Despite the increases in the percentage of insured people in the U.S., there were still over ** million people in the United States without health insurance as of 2024. Insurance coverage Health insurance in the United States consists of different private and public insurance programs such as those provided by private employers or those provided publicly through Medicare and Medicaid. Almost half of the insured population in the United States were insured privately through an employer as of 2021, while **** percent of people were insured through Medicaid, and **** percent through Medicare . The Affordable Care Act The Affordable Care Act (ACA), enacted in 2014, has significantly reduced the number of uninsured people in the United States. In 2014, the percentage of U.S. individuals with health insurance increased to almost ** percent. Furthermore, the percentage of people without health insurance reached an all time low in 2022. Public opinion on healthcare reform in the United States remains an ongoing political issue with public opinion consistently divided.

This layer shows health insurance coverage by type and by age group. This is shown by tract, county, and state boundaries. This service is updated annually to contain the most currently released American Community Survey (ACS) 5-year data, and contains estimates and margins of error. There are also additional calculated attributes related to this topic, which can be mapped or used within analysis. This layer is symbolized to show the percent uninsured.

The degree of uncertainty for an estimate arising from sampling variability is represented through the use of a margin of error. The value shown here is the 90 percent margin of error. The margin of error can be interpreted as providing a 90 percent probability that the interval defined by the estimate minus the margin of error and the estimate plus the margin of error (the lower and upper confidence bounds) contains the true value. In addition to sampling variability, the ACS estimates are subject to nonsampling error (for a discussion of nonsampling variability, see Accuracy of the Data). The effect of nonsampling error is not represented in these tables.Data Processing Notes:This layer is updated automatically when the most current vintage of ACS data is released each year, usually in December.

The U.S. Census Bureau, in collaboration with five federal agencies, launched the Household Pulse Survey to produce data on the social and economic impacts of Covid-19 on American households. The Household Pulse Survey was designed to gauge the impact of the pandemic on employment status, consumer spending, food security, housing, education disruptions, and dimensions of physical and mental wellness.

The survey was designed to meet the goal of accurate and timely weekly estimates. It was conducted by an internet questionnaire, with invitations to participate sent by email and text message. The sample frame is the Census Bureau Master Address File Data. Housing units linked to one or more email addresses or cell phone numbers were randomly selected to participate, and one respondent from each housing unit was selected to respond for him or herself. Estimates are weighted to adjust for nonresponse and to match Census Bureau estimates of the population by age, sex, race and ethnicity, and educational attainment. All estimates shown meet the NCHS Data Presentation Standards for Proportions.

Data Description

This data was originally prepared and released by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). Please read the CMS Disclaimer-User Agreement before using this data.

Here, we've processed the data to facilitate analytics. This processed version has three components:

1. Original versions of the data

The original versions of the 2014, 2015, 2016 data are available in the "raw" directory of the download and "../input/raw" on Kaggle Scripts. Search for "dictionaries" on this page to find the data dictionaries describing the individual raw files.

2. Combined CSV files that contain

• BenefitsCostSharing.csv
• BusinessRules.csv
• Network.csv
• PlanAttributes.csv
• Rate.csv
• ServiceArea.csv

Additionally, there are two CSV files that facilitate joining data across years:

These data represent the predicted (modeled) prevalence of adults (Age 18+) who have Health Insurance Coverage of any kind for each census tract in Colorado.The estimate for each census tract represents an average that was derived from multiple years of Colorado Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System data (2014-2017).CDPHE used a model-based approach to measure the relationship between age, race, gender, poverty, education, location and health conditions or risk behavior indicators and applied this relationship to predict the number of persons' who have the health conditions or risk behavior for each census tract in Colorado. We then applied these probabilities, based on demographic stratification, to the 2013-2017 American Community Survey population estimates and determined the percentage of adults with the health conditions or risk behavior for each census tract in Colorado.The estimates are based on statistical models and are not direct survey estimates. Using the best available data, CDPHE was able to model census tract estimates based on demographic data and background knowledge about the distribution of specific health conditions and risk behaviors.The estimates are displayed in both the map and data table using point estimate values for each census tract and displayed using a Quintile range. The high and low value for each color on the map is calculated based on dividing the total number of census tracts in Colorado (1249) into five groups based on the total range of estimates for all Colorado census tracts. Each Quintile range represents roughly 20% of the census tracts in Colorado. No estimates are provided for census tracts with a known population of less than 50. These census tracts are displayed in the map as "No Est, Pop < 50."No estimates are provided for 7 census tracts with a known population of less than 50 or for the 2 census tracts that exclusively contain a federal correctional institution as 100% of their population. These 9 census tracts are displayed in the map as "No Estimate."

Percentages and derived counts, and associated margins of error, are calculated values (that can be identified by the "_calc_" stub in the field name), and abide by the specifications defined by the American Community Survey.Field alias names were created based on the Table Shells.Margin of error (MOE) values of -555555555 in the API (or "*****" (five asterisks) on data.census.gov) are displayed as 0 in this dataset. The estimates associated with these MOEs have been controlled to independent counts in the ACS weighting and have zero sampling error. So, the MOEs are effectively zeroes, and are treated as zeroes in MOE calculations. Other negative values on the API, such as -222222222, -666666666, -888888888, and -999999999, all represent estimates or MOEs that can't be calculated or can't be published, usually due to small sample sizes. All of these are rendered in this dataset as null (blank) values.
