Abstract
According to the most recent data, nearly 45 million Americans — 15.6 percent of the U.S. population — did not have health insurance during a typical month in 2003. This represents an increase of 5 million people and more than 1 percent of the population since 1990 (see Figure ). Despite intense public debate and concern over the issue of the uninsured, the proportion of the population without insurance remains higher than it was 20 years ago.1
