Health Insurance Coverage Among Same-Sex vs Different-Sex Couples

This cross-sectional study examining insurance coverage among same-sex vs different-sex couples documented gains in health insurance status among individuals in same-sex couples in the past decade in the US. These gains, mostly realized by individuals of high socioeconomic status, reversed one of the defining health disparities for sexual minority adults of the late 20th century, but more must be done to ensure that these gains are distributed across the income distribution, especially to those living in states that have not yet expanded access to public health insurance.
