aExpenses
for care provided by home health agencies and independent home
health providers are included. Most home health expenses (82.5%)
were from agency providers.
|
bPrivate insurance
includes CHAMPUS and CHAMPVA (Armed-Forces-related coverage).
|
cOther public
programs include Department of Veterans Affairs (except CHAMPVA);
other Federal sources (Indian Health Service, military treatment
facilities, and other care provided by the Federal Government);
other State and local sources (community and neighborhood clinics,
State and local health departments, and State programs other
than Medicaid); and other public (Medicaid payments reported
for persons who were not enrolled in the Medicaid program at
any time during the year).
|
dOther includes
Worker's Compensation; other unclassified sources (e.g., automobile,
homeowner's, liability, and other miscellaneous or unknown sources);
and other private insurance (any type of private insurance payments
reported for persons without private health insurance coverage
during the year, as defined in MEPS).
|
eNumber
of persons and amount of expenses do not add to overall total
because data on this variable were not available for some sample
persons.
|
fUninsured
refers to persons uninsured during the entire year. Public and
private health insurance categories refer to individuals with
public or private insurance at any time during the period; individuals
with both public and private insurance and those with CHAMPUS
or CHAMPVA (Armed-Forces-related coverage) are classified as
having insurance.
|
gPoor refers
to incomes below the Federal poverty line; near poor, over the
poverty line through 125 percent of the poverty line; low income,
over 125 percent through 200 percent of the poverty line; middle
income, over 200 percent to 400 percent of the poverty line;
and high income, over 400 percent of the poverty line.
|
† Standard error approximately
zero because of poststratification to Census Bureau population
control tables
|
-- Less
than 100 sample cases with expenses.
|
Note: These
estimates are for a target population of approximately 271.3
million persons who were in the civilian noninstitutionalized
population for all or part of 1997. Percents may not add to 100
because of rounding.
