  7. Some Interesting Findings • According to the Medicare Payment Advisory Commission, only 9.3% of those covered by Medicare in 2000 were covered solely by Medicare. • According to the US Census Bureau, people with access to Indian Health Service have been counted as uninsured since 1997. • When Census Bureau survey respondents were asked to verify that the lack of a positive indication of a form of coverage really meant that they were uninsured, the result was a “reduction” of “uninsured” from 41.9 million to 38.4 million.
