Abstract
Welcome to Public Health Moment from the University of Minnesota. Overall, Minnesota ranks highly for the percentage of residents with health insurance. But Kathleen Call, a professor and health policy expert at the University of Minnesota, says that when one looks closer, you see great disparity. <clip: “But as soon as you start to look…and for Latinos it’s about 19 percent.”> Call says that providing health care access to the uninsured will actually save money in the long term. <clip: “So anybody who doesn’t have insurance…it costs the system much less.”> With another Public Health Moment, I’m John Finnegan.
