Having health insurance is an important factor in being able to get needed health care. According to the 2012 Kentucky Health Issues Poll (KHIP), nearly 3 in 10 Kentucky working age adults (28 percent)* are uninsured, similar to previous surveys. In Northern Kentucky, more than 3 in 10 (35 percent) of adults are uninsured. In general, as age, education level and income increased, the percentage of Kentuckians who were uninsured decreased. KHIP is funded by The Health Foundation of Greater Cincinnati and the Foundation for a Healthy Kentucky.
