Abstract:
OBJECTIVES:We estimated changes in children's insurance status (publicly insured, privately insured, or uninsured) and crowd-out rates during the 2007 to 2009 US recession in Ohio. METHODS:We conducted an estimate of insurance coverage from statewide, randomized telephone surveys in 2004, 2008, 2010, and 2012. We estimated crowd-out by using regression discontinuity. RESULTS:From 2004 to 2012, private insurance rates dropped from 67% to 55% and public rates grew from 28% to 40%, with no change in the uninsured rate for children. Despite a 12.0% decline in private coverage and a corresponding 12.6% increase in public coverage, we found no evidence that crowd-out increased during this period. CONCLUSIONS:Children, particularly those with household incomes lower than 400% of the federal poverty level, were enrolled increasingly in public insurance rather than private coverage. Near the Medicaid eligibility threshold, this is not from an increase in crowd-out. An alternative explanation for the increase in public coverage would be the decline in incomes for households with children.
