Children Health Insurance Crisis Report Seeks Universal Coverage
The Children's Defense Fund released a report at its Cincinnati conference showing 8.3 million U S children, or one in eight, lacked health coverage in 1992. Private, job related insurance declined from 64.1 percent in 1987 to 59.6 percent in 1992, with future job based coverage projected to fall to 52.4 percent by 2000. Medicaid coverage remains for poor and nearly poor children, but growth is not guaranteed. Hillary Clinton, via satellite from Washington, tied reforms to universal, non expiring benefits including prenatal and wellness care through adolescence.
