Health Insurance
Texas leads the nation in having the highest number of
people without health insurance. Roughly 1 out of 4 people in Texas
do not have coverage.
• Texas has an estimated 5,478,260 people without health coverage,
according to a report done by the Kaiser
Foundation (make link to www.kff.org ) on state health facts.
• Currently, there are 1,395,090 children 18 and under without
coverage, which equals the total population of San Antonio.
• There are 5,440,100 adults under the age of 64 that lack
insurance, which equals the total combined population of Houston,
Dallas, Austin, and Fort Worth.
• By ethnicity, 1,481,480 Caucasians have no coverage, which

What are the reasons for the number of uninsured being so high
in Texas?
Low income. Many uninsured people just can’t
afford to pay for health coverage. In the United States, the poverty
level is defined as making $38,614 or less for a family of four.
In Texas 1,807,825 people are at or near the poverty level. Several
Texas families have only one person working.
The high cost of health insurance. This high
cost of insurance affects the poor/near poor greater then it does
the middle or upper class. When faced the decision to obtain insurance
or put food on the table, lower income families choose to put food
on the table.
The high cost of medical bills. Many people refuse
to get needed medical treatment because of cost of getting the procedure
performed. Unpaid medical bills are the number one cause of bankruptcy.
Gaps within health insurance coverage. People
changing jobs several times often cause gaps, and then they are
not eligible for coverage. Gaps in coverage even for short periods
of time may result in decreased access to care. Any person that
has been uninsured for at least 6 months will have a harder time
in obtaining coverage then those that have continued coverage. However,
the average person in Texas goes a minimum of 2 years without coverage
once initial coverage is lost.
