Health insurance survey
Oregon’s public university students are being surveyed to gain a better understanding about how health insurance coverage impacts them.
Current research shows:
- Adults ages 19-34 represent 39% of the uninsured in the U.S.
- 23% of uninsured individuals needed care but did not get it due to cost
- 26% of uninsured individuals postponed seeking care due to cost
Participation in this survey will be used to help provide affordable health insurance for these students.
