Did you know approximately 12 percent (34.7 million) of the U.S. population is African American (3). Compared with white Americans, they are less likely to have private or employment-based health insurance, more likely to be covered by Medicaid or other publicly funded insurance, and twice as likely to be uninsured, even though eight of 10 are in working families.

Many African Americans, especially those who are poor and those working without health care benefits, are less likely than white Americans to have a usual source of health care (2).
