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.
6, Provide a detailed argument about how such inequalities could be eliminated.Some examples include:universal health care, requiring medical providers to charge uninsured patients the discounted rates given to insurance companies, more government run and funded medical facilities for the poor, etc.
