Association of health insurance coverage disruptions with mortality risk among US working-age adults.
This cohort study assessed associations of a prior coverage disruption with mortality risk among large, nationally representative cohorts of working-age adults aged 18 to 64 with public or private health insurance coverage. Most research had previously been conducted among Medicaid enrollees, and little is known about insurance disruption among privately insured adults. The study used data from the 2000 to 2018 National Health Interview Survey (NIHS), specifically from the NHIS Linked Mortality files which contain data from the National Death Index. All data was deidentified and publicly available. The authors found that disruptions were associated with a higher mortality risk in either publicly or privately insured adults.
