Patterns and Reasons for Being Uninsured Among Sexual Minority Adults Before and After the Affordable Care Act Implementation.
Purpose: We aimed to identify the self-reported reasons for being uninsured and sociodemographic factors associated with uninsurance among lesbian, gay, or bisexual (LGB) adults before and after the Affordable Care Act (ACA). Methods: We analyzed the 2013-2018 National Health Interview Survey data using multivariable logistic regression models to estimate the odds of being uninsured and the prevalence of self-reported reasons for not having insurance among LGB adults aged 18-64 years. Results: The study included 2124 LGB adults. The weighted uninsured rate decreased significantly from 19.6% in 2013 to 13.2% in 2017-2018 (odds ratio 0.61; 95% confidence interval 0.47-0.78). The primary reason cited for not having insurance post-ACA was similar to pre-ACA, with cost-related factors being the most commonly reported (31.5%). Conclusion: The overall uninsured rate decreased among LGB adults from 2013 to 2018, whereas disparities across subpopulations remained. Cost-related factors remained significant barriers to obtaining insurance coverage.

期刊介绍:
LGBT Health is the premier peer-reviewed journal dedicated to promoting optimal healthcare for millions of sexual and gender minority persons worldwide by focusing specifically on health while maintaining sufficient breadth to encompass the full range of relevant biopsychosocial and health policy issues. This Journal aims to promote greater awareness of the health concerns particular to each sexual minority population, and to improve availability and delivery of culturally appropriate healthcare services. LGBT Health also encourages further research and increased funding in this critical but currently underserved domain. The Journal provides a much-needed authoritative source and international forum in all areas pertinent to LGBT health and healthcare services. Contributions from all continents are solicited including Asia and Africa which are currently underrepresented in sex research.
