Although children of married families have on average more resources than children in singe parent families, many married families still fall far short of providing health insurance to their children through their own employment. Over half of the children who are uninsured belong to married families. Using 2 sets of matched files from the Current Population Survey March Supplement (1997/1998 and 1998/1999), I examine the prevalence of health insurance among married families with children. Families who have a child who is eligible for a State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP) are more likely to enroll their children in public health insurance. In addition, married families who are publicly insured are more likely to have younger wives, to have an infant, and to have parents with fair or poor health, and less likely to have full time workers compared to married families whose children are privately insured or uninsured. While SCHIP has theoretically made public health insurance more accessible to married families, there is still a substantial minority of married families with uninsured children who are eligible for SCHIP, yet not enrolled.Subjects--Topical Terms:

Over half of the children who are uninsured belong to married families.

In addition, married families who are publicly insured are more likely to have younger wives, to have an infant, and to have parents with fair or poor health, and less likely to have full time workers compared to married families whose children are privately insured or uninsured.

520 $a There are many health insurance transitions over the course of a year among those married families whose children originate in uninsured or publicly insured statuses and proportionally few transitions among families whose children originate in the privately insured status. Married families whose children transition off of public health insurance are less likely to have SCHIP eligible children and more likely to have favorable work characteristics. Those families who transition onto public health insurance are more likely to have SCHIP eligible children, parent's with fair/poor health, and less favorable work conditions. A substantial minority of those married families who remain uninsured over the course of a year have SCHIP eligible children.
