Healthcare Access and Affordability

Washington ranks 20th among all states for overall healthcare accessibility and affordability. Healthcare costs are a large part of the cost-of-living. Key indicators of how much you'll be paying for this resource are your ability to pay for it, as well as your ability to access it.

The rates for insurance coverage in a particular state and the out-of-pocket expenses you have to pay when receiving care are two indicators of affordability. Your cost of living will rise if you have high rates and out-of-pocket costs.

Access to healthcare refers to how simple or difficult it is to obtain the care. Access can be measured by identifying any barriers that may prevent care delivery, such as inability to get insurance coverage, long travel to healthcare centers or lack of adequate facilities and/or healthcare professionals. Another important indicator is the speed of care, which measures how quickly you can see a healthcare provider.
