Health Care Coverage Status (BRFSS): 2007-2010

Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) sample data were used to generate annual percentages of non-institutionalized adult (18+) NYS residents with/without health insurance coverage. Health care coverage percentages are provided for 2007 to 2010, and are available for a range of demographic and geographic categories (New York City/Rest of State; Sex; Race/Ethnicity; Age; Education; Income; Limitation Status; Employment Status; Mental Health Status). BRFSS is a random digit dialing (RDD) phone survey of the health status and health behaviors of adult NYS residents. The sample covers between 6,000 and 9,000 completed interviews annually through this timeframe. Data for 2011 forward are available at: https://health.data.ny.gov/Health/Health-Care-Coverage-Status-BRFSS-Beginning-2011/g5ce-hdeb
