The struggling economy has caused many to be more concerned about health care costs. For some, the loss of a job or health insurance causes greater concern. This worry has resulted in many delaying needed care. According to a Kaiser Family Foundation March 2010 poll, "Nearly six in ten (57 percent) say they have put off some sort of needed care over the course of the year because of the cost." Even more alarming, this poll found that those currently in ill health are much more likely to report passing up on needed care for cost reasons.
