A recent report by the Commonwealth Fund, a private foundation that supports health policy and health system reform research, shows that 13.7 million young adults aged 19 to 29 years are uninsured, comprising about 30% of the estimated 46 million individuals without coverage. Sara Collins, PhD, a vice president at the Fund and lead author of the report, said the number of uninsured young adults has increased every year since 2003, when the Fund published its first report on young adults' health insurance status.
