Description
Displays the estimated number of residents of the ZCTA who are covered by Medicare or private insurance who are not served by any health centers. In the dot density map, one dot equals 100 residents covered by Medicare or private insurance from that ZCTA that do not go to any health center. Each dot is randomly placed in the ZCTA. Note: Pending the release of 2021 American Community Survey data, statistics such as program penetration and unmet need by insurance category are comparing 2021 patients to 2020 population data.
