At least 20 million working Americans do not have healthcare coverage, according to a study released by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation.

In six states, at least one in five working adults is uninsured, according to the report, which looked at government data. In 38 other states, at least one working adult in every 10 does not have health insurance.

The report also found that adults who do not have health insurance experience significant gaps in medical care compared to those who do.

The organization released the report to coincide with a campaign to raise awareness, Cover the Uninsured Week. Nearly 1,500 public events will take place around the country during the week. Specific events are designed to help uninsured individuals get services and provide information to small business owners struggling to provide health insurance for their employees.
