Becker's Healthcare July 22, 2024
Healthcare is most affordable and accessible for women in Vermont and least affordable and accessible for women in Texas, according to a July 18 analysis from The Commonwealth Fund.
The report evaluated all 50 states and Washington, D.C., on 32 measures of healthcare access, affordability, care quality and health outcomes for women. The Commonwealth Fund ranked states both on overall performance across these areas and on each category separately.
To assess healthcare affordability and access, the independent, nonpartisan organization examined insurance coverage, women’s usual source of care, cost-related barriers to care and the state health system’s capacity for reproductive health services. The analysis is based on 2021-22 data from publicly available sources. Learn more about the methodology here.
