Who Is Uninsured?

The Clare Booth Luce Institute has put out a great primer on health care written by long-time friend of IWF, Sally Pipes. Health care is a central issue in every campaign and can be confusing. This piece helps seperate out fact from myth, helps the reader better understand who the uninsured are (hint, they are often young and with above average incomes) and what's at stake in reform proposals. It's a must read for anyone who cares about the future of our health care system.

For the longest, I was not insured and although I had state health insurance, it only worked best when I went to the emergency room. Getting Dr. Appts. seemed to take months, even if I were desperately ill. Sitting in long waiting rooms and somewhat dirty conditions. It motiviated me to get through school and work hard to not go back there.
