10.3% (over 4.7 million) of adults with a mental illness remain uninsured.
Under the Affordable Care Act (ACA), the U.S. continues to see a decline in Americans who are uninsured. There was a 1.9 percent reduction from last year’s dataset.
Thirty-nine states saw a reduction in Adults with AMI who are uninsured. The largest reductions were seen in Louisiana (5.3%), New York (4.7%), Iowa (4.6%) and Arkansas (4.2%).
Each of the bottom 17 states, with the exception of Louisiana, are states that have not expanded Medicaid. Louisiana, however, has had the largest reductions in the rate of uninsured adults with AMI since the state expanded Medicaid in 2016, from 20 percent of adults with AMI to 14.7%.
The rankings for this indicator used data from the 2016-2017 NSDUH. Some states, such as Arkansas, that had a reduction in uninsured adults with AMI passed Medicaid work requirements in 2018, which may lead to a large change in coverage in future reports.
The state prevalence of uninsured adults with mental illness ranges from 2.4% in Massachusetts to 22.9% in Wyoming.

Almost a quarter (22.3%) of all adults with a mental illness reported that they were not able to receive the treatment they needed. This number has not declined since 2011.
Individuals seeking treatment but still not receiving needed services face the same barriers that contribute to the number of individuals not receiving treatment:
The state prevalence of adults with AMI reporting unmet treatment needs ranges from 14.3% in Alabama to 31.2% in Utah.

29.4% of adults with a cognitive disability were not able to see a doctor due to costs.
According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), 11.4% of people in the United States had a cognitive disability, even when adjusted for age. 1 The percentage of people with cognitive disability ranged from 7.8 percent in some states to 19.1 percent.
A 2017 study found that compared to working-age adults without disabilities, those with disabilities are more likely to live below the federal poverty level and to use public insurance. Their average health costs were also 3-7 times higher than those without disabilities, and they were more likely to face access problems to care, including cost.
The prevalence of adults with disability who couldn’t see a MD due to cost ranges from 16.87% in Iowa to 41.03% in Texas.
