Understanding the chart
The health insurance coverage statistics are made more complex because of persons with multiple forms of coverage (e.g., both employer-provided insurance and Medicaid).
- A primary source for the graphic is from the CBO, which estimated the 2016 amounts for the under 65 group in March 2016. [1]
- The total U.S. population in 2016 was about 324m according to FRED. [2] However, due to the problem with multiple forms of coverage, components in the second layer add up to 340.
- Another source for the Medicare and Military figures is from the Census Bureau. [3]
Neither source presents the complete picture and they are for different time periods, so the diagram should be used as approximations rather than exact portrayal of the figures as of the end of 2016.
