International migration serves as a more effective insurance mechanism for these households, separating them from households who are not insured and therefore fall back on relatively low-yield, low variance seed.
The administrative database only includes individuals who are provincially insured, and therefore discrepancies could not be examined for individuals with private insurance.
If 47 million Americans are uninsured, this means that over 250 million are insured, and therefore the plight of the uninsured, while a matter of vital social concern, is not an overriding daily issue for the vast majority of Americans.
Our results show that respondents from households that are relatively prosperous quintiles were significantly more likely to be insured and therefore more likely to benefit from the NHIS compared to those who are relatively poor.
For example if a customer complains that the costs of treatment are not reimbursed and the company concludes that the customer is not insured, and therefore not reimbursed for this specific treatment, then there is nothing that can be done regarding the technical quality of the complaint.
Conversely, it can be argued that those paying for these expenses are more concerned about being fully insured and financially secure; therefore, they seek out off-farm employment providing these benefits as well.
