Childrens Health Care

With workers paying an average of over $6,500 per year toward employer-sponsored family coverage and Every Kid Healthy Week kicking off on April 22, the personal-finance website WalletHub today released its report on 2024’s Best & Worst States for Children's Health Care, as well as expert commentary.

In order to determine which states offer the most cost-effective and highest-quality health care for children, WalletHub compared the 50 states and the District of Columbia across 33 key metrics. The data set ranges from the share of children in excellent or very good health to pediatricians and family doctors per capita.
