CDC Reports 8% Uninsured Rate, 800,000 More Uninsured in 2025
The CDC's National Health Interview Survey found that approximately 8% of the U.S. population was uninsured in 2025, a rate largely unchanged from 2024 but representing 800,000 additional uninsured individuals, including 300,000 children. The uninsured rate remains below 2019 levels. The increase in uninsured individuals suggests potential shifts in Medicaid eligibility or enrollment following the end of pandemic-era continuous coverage protections. These coverage losses may affect Medicaid managed care plan enrollment and revenue projections.
Rising uninsured numbers, particularly among children, may signal disenrollment pressures affecting Medicaid managed care plan membership and capitation revenue.
