The percentage of uninsured Kansans flattened out in 2023 but remained higher than the national rate for the third straight year, new census data shows.

New census data out on Thursday - compiled by the Kansas Health Institute - showed Kansas with an uninsured rate of 8.4%, or 240,000 people.

It was down from 8.6% a year earlier, which wasn't considered statistically different because of the small sample size.

By comparison, the national uninsured rate hit 7.9% in 2023 . . .
