| Title: | HEALTH INSURANCE COVERAGE FOR PENNSYLVANIA DAIRY FARM MANAGERS |
| Authors: | Gripp, Sharon I.
Ford, Stephen A. |
| Issue Date: | 1997-10 |
| Abstract: | A survey of more than 1200 Pennsylvania dairy farm managers showed that almost 20% of those managers do not have health insurance. Of those farm managers with health insurance, 67% had insurance acquired through the farm business. Farm characteristics and demographic information were used to determine indicators of health insurance coverage. Age, education, net farm income, off-farm income, milk marketing cooperative membership, and intensity of hired labor use all had significant effects on the likelihood of having health insurance and on whether such insurance was provided by the farm business. |
