Medicaid's lasting impressions: population health and insurance at birth.
This article examines lasting mortality improvements associated with availability of Medicaid at time and place of birth. Being born after Medicaid was associated with between 2.03 and 3.64 fewer deaths per 100,000 person-years in childhood and between 1.35 and 3.86 fewer deaths per 100,000 person-years in the thirties. The association between Medicaid at birth and mortality was the strongest in the oldest age group (36-40) in this study.
