Utah’s uninsured rate holding steady

There was little change last year in the number of Utahns who went without health insurance. The state’s ranks of uninsured included 301,700 people in 2010, about 10.6 percent of the population, according to an annual census by the Utah Department of Health. That’s a slight improvement over the 314,300 Utahns who went without coverage in 2009, but statistically insignificant, say health officials. Salt Lake Tribune
