About The Study: This study contributes to the existing literature by identifying that while insurance coverage is higher among children with disabilities, their families had higher adjusted odds for all of the financial hardships evaluated, compared with families of children without disabilities. This finding suggests that insurance is inadequate for disabled children. These data demonstrate a need to structure health insurance policies to ensure that children with disabilities have their needed medical care covered in a way that is not financially burdensome to families.
