Report Overview
• This chapter is part of a larger report created by the Wisconsin Department of Health Services to track progress on the objectives of Healthiest Wisconsin 2020 (HW2020) and identify health disparities in the state. The full report is available at: http://www.dhs.wisconsin.gov/publications/P0/p00522.pdf
• The report is designed to address the Health Focus Areas in HW2020. Where direct measures exist, data are presented; where direct measures are not available, related information may be included.
• Information about populations experiencing health disparities is provided in the Health Focus Area chapters and is summarized in separate chapters devoted to specific populations.
• Technical notes are available at: http://www.dhs.wisconsin.gov/publications/P0/p00522y.pdf

Data notes
• Please refer to the Technical Notes chapter for a more detailed description of limitations and methods: http://www.dhs.wisconsin.gov/publications/P0/p00522y.pdf
• The 95% confidence intervals are denoted by error bars. Where confidence intervals do not overlap, as shown in the example on the right, differences are statistically significant. Larger confidence intervals may indicate less reliable estimates that should be interpreted with caution.
• Population estimates that are considered unreliable are excluded.
• Misclassification of racial/ethnic groups may affect the accuracy of rates.
• Unless otherwise indicated, the Hispanic population may include people of various races; Whites, Blacks, Asians, and American Indians are non-Hispanic.

Objective 2
By 2020, assure that populations of differing races, ethnicities, sexual identities and orientations, gender identities and educational or economic status, and those with disabilities, have access to comprehensive, patient-centered health services that are safe, effective, affordable, timely, coordinated and navigable.
Objective 2 Indicators
• Proportion of people in each population group with health insurance.
• Proportion of people in each population group with an ongoing source of care.
• Proportion of adults with and without a disability who report difficulties or delays in obtaining needed health care.
• Proportion of Wisconsin children who report inadequate health insurance.Source: Wisconsin Department of Health Services, Healthiest Wisconsin 2020, Access to High-Quality Health Services Focus Area Profile.

HW2020 objectives
Healthiest Wisconsin 2020 objectives and indicators
ACCESS TO CARE
Rationale• Access to high-quality health services means universal access to affordable high-
quality health services for all people in Wisconsin to promote optimal physical and mental health and to prevent illness, disease, injury, disability, and premature death.
• High-quality health services include the full range of health care services, including medical, dental, mental health, and long term care. Access to high-quality health services means they are available to the people of Wisconsin when, where, and how services are needed. This includes equitable access to health promotion and disease prevention services across the life span that are coordinated, culturally competent, and linguistically appropriate.
• To be effective in producing good health outcomes, health services must be integrated, equitable, patient-centered, safe, timely, and efficient to effectively meet the needs of diverse populations.
• To ensure the health and economic security of Wisconsin families, everyone in the state needs access to affordable and high-quality health services, regardless of health, employment, financial, or family status.

Key points
o Income: Adults with low household incomes were more likely to not have a doctor’s visit in the past year, to not have a personal doctor, and to be unable to obtain care due to costs than were adults with higher incomes.
o Geography: Residents of nonmetropolitan counties were more likely to not have a doctor’s visit in the past year and to not have a personal doctor than those in Milwaukee County; however, residents of Milwaukee County were more likely to be unable to obtain care due to costs.
o Disability status: Among adults ages 18-64, those without a disability were more likely to not have a doctor’s visit in the past year and to not have a personal doctor than were those with a disability; however, adults with a disability were more likely to be unable to obtain care due to costs.

ACCESS TO CARE
Youth• During 2008-2010, an estimated 4% of children in Wisconsin ages 0-17
were uninsured.
• In 2011-2012:
o Approximately one in four parents/guardians in Wisconsin felt that their child’s health insurance coverage was inadequate and one in three children did not receive both routine medical and dental visits in the past year.
o About half of Wisconsin children living in households below the federal poverty level did not see a health provider for preventive medical and dental care during the past 12 months.
o Compared to other children, children with special health care needs were significantly more likely to have unmet medical or dental needs.
o Nearly half of Black and Hispanic children in Wisconsin did not receive coordinated, ongoing, comprehensive care within a medical home.
