Summary
Using data from the 2005 California Health Interview Survey (CHIS), researchers at the UCLA Center for Health Policy Research were able to produce these fact sheets detailing health insurance coverage, the lack of coverage, and demographic characteristics for counties and regions in California.
Fact sheets are provided for seven state regions, 40 individual counties, and three aggregated county groups comprised of counties will small populations.
In addition to identifying the number of adults and children who were uninsured for all or part of 2005, the fact sheets also provide specific information on these age groups with regard to employment-based coverage, public insurance programs, privately purchased insurance and income.
The fact sheets were produced through grants from The California Endowment and The California Wellness Foundation.
