摘要 | This brief provides the first state-level estimates of the share of nonelderly adults reporting medical bills that are past due, drawing on data from the 2012 and 2015 National Financial Capability Study. Past-due medical debt is common: 23.8 percent of nonelderly adults reported past-due medical debt in 2015, down 5.8 percentage points from 2012. Past-due medical debt varies considerably across states in both years, with the highest prevalence found in Southern states. Although health insurance is associated with a reduced likelihood of reporting past-due medical debt, many adults with insurance coverage remain unable to pay their medical bills on time. |
