Nearly 30 million still without health insurance: report

Published



In the first six months of 2017, 28.8 million Americans had no health insurance, about 19.8 million fewer than before Obamacare was signed.

The report from the National Center for Health Statistics notes that there wasn’t a significant difference in the number of uninsured compared to the same period in 2016, when 28.6 million people lacked coverage. The coverage estimates come as Congress debates whether to roll back Obamacare.
