Figure.. Medicaid Enrollees’ Overall Health Care Satisfaction Ratings, 2014-2015
Data are from the National Medicaid CAHPS survey administered by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) to Medicaid enrollees in 46 states and Washington, DC (n = 108 645 in nonexpansion states, and n = 164 034 in expansion states, excluding item nonresponse). Ratings ranged from 0 to 10 for the question, “Using any number from 0 to 10, where 0 is the worst health care possible and 10 is the best health care possible, what number would you use to rate all your health care in the last 6 months?” All estimates use CMS survey weights to account for the sampling design of the CAHPS survey.
