However, a recent report issued by Georgetown University’s Center for Children and Families said the number of uninsured children in Pennsylvania fell from 147,000 in 2013 to to 111,000 in 2015 — dropping the uninsured rate in that population from 5.2 to 4.1 percent.

It also found that about 46 percent of children nationally were covered by job-based insurance, compared to about 36 percent in Medicaid and CHIP.
