Florida Consumer Healthcare Experience State Survey

A survey of more than 1,300 Florida adults, conducted from May 3 to May 23, 2023, found that:

• Over 3 in 5 (63%) experienced at least one health care affordability burden in the past year;
• 4 in 5 (80%) worry about affording health care in the future;
• Lower-income respondents and respondents with disabilities are more likely to go without care and incur debt due to health care costs; and
• Across party lines, respondents express strong support for government-led solutions.

Altarum’s Consumer Healthcare Experience State Survey (CHESS) is designed to elicit respondents’ unbiased views on a wide range of health system issues, including confidence using the health system, financial burden and views on fixes that might be needed.
