Most poor child and infant care in the US is attributable IMO to the refusal of many people to utilize the facilities that are available to them. They are often too ignorant or afraid to sign up for free subsidized care available through Medicaid. Many of those with incomes above poverty level refuse to pay the large copayments that are required on available insurance. Many medicare recipients refuse to buy part B insurance because they think they are too poor and then, once destitute, sign up for medicaid. In Hawaii, which has one of the most advanced and expensive systems of free and subsidized insurance and by far the cheapest comprehensive private insurance, 11 percent of the population is estimated to be uninsured.
