Uninsured numbers up as
employee coverage declines
WASHINGTON (AP) - About 1.4 million
more people were without health insurance
last year as the recession increased unem
ployment and forced businesses to scale
back benefits, Census Bureau figures show.
Roughly 41.2 million people, or 14.6 per
cent of U.S. residents, lacked health cover
age for all of 2001, compare with 14.2 per
cent the previous year, according to bureau
estimates being released Monday.
The share of the population covered
under private, employment-based plans
declined from 64 percent to 63 percent last
year. "That was the principal cause of the
overall decrease," bureau analyst Robert
Mills said.
Reflecting the broad impact of the reces-

income levels, as well as among full- and

and immigrants.
Ministers gather for final
session on monetary policy
WASHINGTON (AP) - World financial
leaders pledged Sunday to do everything
possible to prevent stock market turmoil
from derailing an uncertain global recovery
and committed themselves to meeting an
April deadline for unveiling a dramatic new
approach for handling bankrupt nations.
IMF Managing Director Horst Koehler said
the agreement to move the bankruptcy pro
posal forward was a major achievement for
this year's annual meetings of the 184-
nation IMF and its sister lending organiza
tion, the World Bank.
