abstract: 'Objectives. We examined the disparities in health-care coverage between
|
||||
|
||||
low- and high-income workers in Washington State (WA) to provide support
|
||||
|
||||
for possible policy decisions for uninsured workers.
|
||||
|
||||
Methods. We examined data from the WA Behavioral Risk Factor
|
||||
|
||||
Surveillance System 2003-2007 and compared workers aged 18-64 years of
|
||||
|
||||
low income (annual household income <\$35,000) and high income (annual
|
||||
|
||||
household income >=\$35,000) on proportions and sources of health-care
|
||||
|
||||
coverage. We conducted multivariable logistic regression analyses on
|
||||
|
||||
factors that were associated with the uninsured.
|
||||
|
||||
Results. Of the 54,536 survey respondents who were working-age adults in
|
||||
|
||||
WA, 13,922 (25.5\%) were low-income workers. The proportions of
|
||||
|
||||
uninsured were 38.2\% for low-income workers and 6.3\% for high-income
|
||||
|
||||
workers. While employment-based health benefits remained a dominant
|
||||
|
||||
source of health insurance coverage, they covered only 40.2\% of
|
||||
|
||||
low-income workers relative to 81.5\% of high-income workers. Besides
|
||||
|
||||
income, workers were more likely to be uninsured if they were younger;
|
||||
|
||||
male; Hispanic; less educated; not married; current smokers;
|
||||
|
||||
self-employed; or employed in agriculture/forestry/fisheries,
|
||||
|
||||
construction, and retail. More low-income workers (28.7\%) reported cost
|
||||
|
||||
as an issue in paying for health services than did their high-income
|
||||
|
||||
counterparts (6.7\%).
|
||||
|
||||
Conclusion. A persistent gap in health-care coverage exists between low-
|
||||
|
||||
and high-income workers. The identified characteristics of these workers
|
||||
|
||||
can be used to implement policies to expand health insurance coverage.'
