American health insurance by income in 2020

In 2020, a greater percent of previously uninsured people in the U.S. with low incomes were enrolled in Medicare or Medicaid.

Note: The income measure used here is disposable income, which is defined as market income plus cash transfers from the government and noncash benefits like food stamps and public housing. It excludes taxes, out-of-pocket medical spending, insurance premiums and other expenses. There have been small changes in the census questionnaire between the two survey dates.
