Policy Research Report
The eighth edition of The State of Health Insurance in California, published every two years since 2002, evaluates the first year of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) of 2010. Using data from the 2013-2014 California Health Interview Survey (CHIS), the authors find that in 2014, the uninsured rate significantly declined. ACA health insurance expansions played a large role in this, giving Californians more options for coverage than ever before.

Fact Sheet
This fact sheet examines health insurance trends using 2015 data from the California Health Interview Survey (CHIS). The authors find that nearly one-third of all nonelderly adults and children (32.2 percent) were enrolled in Medi-Cal in 2015, an increase of 11 percentage points from 2013. The study also finds significant increases in enrollment and greater affordablility for traditionally disadvantaged groups: the low-income and communities of color.
