Nationally: Total AIAN population ACS estimate 4.9 million• 48% have Private Insurance (2,352,932)• 35% have Medicaid or Medicare (1,692,375 )• 24% are uninsured (1,157,179)

Example: how to use data for impact analysis• Your Mertropolitan Area• 1st step: How many AIANs are there?• 1. ____AIAN alone• 2. ______AIAN alone and in combination - most commonly used
• 2nd step: What is rate of private and public insurance?• 1. _____have private insurance• 2. ______of ____ have private insurance (repeat for public)
• 3rd step: What is number and rate of uninsured? • 1. _____uninsured ( _____) in __metro area for AIAN alone and
in combination and____% for AIAN alone.

Using data for planning• 4th step: Determine distribution across 3 income categories.• A. __ under 138% of poverty, B. __138 to 400%, C. ___over 400%
• California Rural Indian Health Board developed estimates of distribution of income across these categories and one 138-300% for states and metropolitan areas.
• 5th step: Use estimates to provide information needed for planning outreach and education, workforce, facilities, budgets.
• 6th step: Remember these are estimates, check with reality as it becomes known, make no assumptions, remember error rates.
• Compare your area to your state and to other metro areas so you can adopt, but adapt best practices appropriately.

The American Community Survey Notes
3-year data (2008-2010 surveys pooled data) released October 27, 2011• State, County and Metropolitan Area data for areas w/
≥ 20,000 AIAN alone and in combination• Health Insurance data partially available:
• most reliable data thus far• first time including 3-year data as question on health insurance first
asked in 2008• Current release does not report Medicaid or Medicare separately,
but as public coverage• IHS ‘coverage’ and Income distribution for AIANs:
• 3-year data is now available for analysis, but analyses seldom present AIAN data compared to Hispanic, Black or even Asian.

How many AIANs will remain uninsured in Metro Areas in 2014 – 2019?
It is a behavioral question how many will remain uninsured in 2014-2019, but this presentation describes the basic components of the insurance equation for AIANs:
• What is the Metro AIAN population’s current insurance status?• What is the income of the AIAN population-
eligibility for Medicaid or Exchange subsidies?• Is IHS available as an acceptable (however
inadequate) alternative to health insurance?

Questions on the ACS
The health insurance question asks the respondent to give a separate answer for each member of household regarding health insurance coverage.1. Employer Sponsored Insurance (ESI)2. Private, paid by individual3. Medicare4. Medicaid 5. Tricare, Health care insure for military and families6. VA, Veteran’s Administration 7. IHS coverage-not used to compute rates of insurance • Question on insurance is ‘point in time’ or ‘current coverage’
not the coverage in the ‘past year’ asked in some surveys.• It is generally believed that Medicaid is underreported .

Limitations of ACS data• Estimates are based on survey samples:• do not have calculated error rates to inform the range of
uncertainty in the estimates• three years of data for Washington include more than 6308
responses from self-identified AIANs• As the first set of 3-year estimates, it is relatively new and little
research has examined its relative accuracy.Example: there is some evidence that it underestimates Medicaid coverage by a couple points
• Uninsured is calculated when a respondent answers:• no to all 6 types of health insurance coverage• also, IHS is not considered coverage

Estimating impact of health care reform on AIANs
• 2014 expansion depends on number of AIANs already receiving health care services through…1. Private insurance, many are surprised at how much experience
AIANs have with Private Insurance in some states (CA, OK, TX,)2. Public: Medicaid (800,000), Medicare(200,000)3. Military, Veteran’s Administration4. Indian health services
• Or are… 1. Uninsured2. Underinsured, or whose co-pay/deductibles are too high for
current income
FOR THOSE NEW TO INDIAN HEALTH PROGRAMS, PLEASE NOTE: There are many AIANs with access to VA or IHS services who currently have no way to pay for their needed health care services…uninsured, underinsured (or in Indian health programs, hereafter IHPs, who can’t pay for patient referral care due to shortages of CHS funding or shortages of Urban Indian Health Care Program funding).

Expect revisions to estimates• There is a great deal of uncertainty in estimates of newly insured through
Medicaid expansion and even greater uncertainty in the number of AIANs who are likely to be newly insured in the health insurance exchange offered plans in 2014.• No effective mandate, no penalties for AIANs who do not obtain insurance.• Reluctance to accept subsidies if income varies due to seasonal income
from fishing or other subsistence activity if reconciliation results in a tax bill.• Urban Indians will often not have access to tribal resources for sponsorship,
will have higher cost of living, but inadequate income for health exchange plans, and urban programs will need increased funding to serve their needs.
• Tribes located in urban areas will not be able to serve Urban Indians in 2014 if they remain uninsured and Urban Indian Health Programs are not funded to provide uncompensated care for AIANs.
• Community Health Center funding has been cut from level authorized and appropriated in the Affordable Care Act twice (latest February, 2012 release of President’s Proposed Budget for 2014).

Overall AssessmentThe impact of Health Care Reform in Metro Areas1. Great variation between Metropolitan Areas in health insurance status
with some metros exceeded all-races (Dallas, Houston, Los Angeles) private insurance rates.
2. AIANs are not subject to minimum coverage requirement’s penalities (no effective mandate) thus fewer will buy insurance.
3. Will involve many AIANs who do not have access to Indian Health Services funded services for care if they choose not to purchase insurance.
4. Urban Indian Health Programs already unable to provide health care for their Urban Indian Communities will only benefits from ACA if AIANs enroll in Medicaid or Exchange Offered health plans
5. Will involve over 400,000 AIANs who are uninsured and living in the nation’s 34 largest urban Indian Metros.
6. Exchange will involve a large number who will be eligible for subsidies and waiver of cost sharing (up to 300% of poverty).
