Regarding the CPS ASEC ~8% number, census.gov seems to track insured Americans similar to how the FCC tracks broadband availability[1].
This ~92% insured in 2020 includes:
- People subscribed to unusable ACA and private plans (eg: $9100 deductibles)
- People considered eligible for Medicaid by CMCS, including those who are denied coverage by state administration agencies
- Millions of people who were directly granted temporary Covid Medicaid coverage by CMCS (bypassing state agencies) - which expires in days
[1] FCC broadband maps consider an entire census tract served, as long as an ISP alleges just one house there can be served.
