The Federalist Apr. 26, 2017 "[A 2009 study] found that private health care insurance was associated in 2005 with a 40 percent mortality risk reduction among the pre-Medicare U.S. adult population ... This study had a huge effect on the political debate surrounding Obamacare.... Since Obamacare provisions extended insurance coverage, the [all-cause] death rate has substantially increased, by more than 20,000 deaths per year.... [W]hen we calculate the death rate after excluding all external causes of morbidity ... this death rate should fall to 238 per 100,000. The 2014-15 data show the actual reported death rate among U.S. adults, excluding external causes, is ... 252.9." |
