KFF: Percentage of Total Adults in the Health Insurance Coverage Gap by Race/Ethnicity  

1. White: 39%
2. Black: 32%
3. Hispanic: 24%
4. Other: 6%

Notes: As of May 2023, 1.9 million people in 10 states fall in a coverage gap, with incomes too high to qualify for Medicaid but too low to qualify for Marketplace subsidies. Totals do not sum to 100% due to rounding.
