Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The uninsured in the United States generally do not have access to basic and routine medical services because they cannot afford to pay for healthcare out-of-pocket and do not have health insurance. While people who need catastrophic care may face high costs, they still have access to emergency medical services. Those eligible only for public programs, such as Medicaid or Medicare, have some access to medical services through those programs. Similarly, those without private health insurance may still have access to medical services through public programs or by paying out-of-pocket. Thus, the correct answer is C, the uninsured.
