More than a quarter of Hawai'i residents under age 65 went without health insurance at some point during 2007 and 2008, according to a new report from Families USA, a group that advocates for quality, affordable healthcare for all U.S. residents

The report shows 294,000 Hawai'i residents, or 27.1 percent of those under 65, were uninsured for at least a month during the two-year period. It also found that 195,000 of those were uninsured for at least six months during the period.
