摘要

健康保险提供重要的私人和社会福利。人口覆盖率的差异仍然是一个重要的公共政策问题。作者着重研究了1987年和1996年白人、黑人和西班牙裔美国人的医疗保险状况,并确定了相对于白人美国人,少数族裔医疗保险覆盖率的差距。他们还调查了这些群体中的工人获得基于就业的健康保险的情况。根据人口特征的变化和构成健康保险需求和供应基础的结构变化,确定了过去十年中工人保险状况变化的根本因素。作者发现,虽然大多数种族/族裔群体的工人覆盖率下降,但西班牙裔男性的经历似乎是独一无二的,因为他们的特征变化以及结构性变化导致了他们与就业相关的覆盖率下降。结构性变化主导了其他群体覆盖率的变化。

Race/ethnicity and health insurance status: 1987 and 1996.
Health insurance confers important private and social benefits. Disparities in coverage among the population remain an important public policy issue. The authors focus on the health insurance status of white, black, and Hispanic Americans in both 1987 and 1996 and identify gaps in minority health care coverage relative to white Americans. They also investigate the access of workers in these groups to employment-based health insurance. Identified are factors underlying changes in the insurance status of workers during the past decade in terms of changes in population characteristics and structural shifts underlying the demand for and supply of health insurance. The authors find that while coverage has declined for workers in most racial/ethnic groups, the experience of Hispanic males appears to be unique in that changes in their characteristics as well as structural shifts account for their decline in employment-related coverage. Structural shifts dominated the changes in coverage rates for other groups.
