Answer to Question 1

An ideal response will:

3, Discuss that twice as many Hispanics and African Americans are uninsured when compared to non-Hispanic whites.
4, Discuss Medicaid and the Children's Health Insurance Program as two specific government programs designed to give the poor access to quality health care.
5, Explain that the uninsured often receive lower quality care and are faced with substantial debt because they do not receive a discount for services.
