The change between non-overlapping survey periods clears the combined published margin, in the wrong direction for this metric.
Cost burden rose 2.2 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 25.4% to 27.6% - more than the combined survey margin (±1.7pp). That reverses the previous span, which went down between the 2010-2014 and 2015-2019 surveys. That is movement in the wrong direction.

The change between non-overlapping survey periods is smaller than the combined published margin of error, so no real change can be claimed.
Uninsured changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (9.0% then, 9.4% now; margin ±0.7pp).

The change between non-overlapping survey periods clears the combined published margin, in the wrong direction for this metric.
Child uninsured rose 1.7 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 5.6% to 7.3% - more than the combined survey margin (±1.3pp). That reverses the previous span, which went down between the 2010-2014 and 2015-2019 surveys. That is movement in the wrong direction.

The change between non-overlapping survey periods is within the margin, but each of the last 3 annual releases moved the 5-year average the same way. Direction is a reliable early signal; its size is not.
College attainment changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (27.8% then, 29.0% now; margin ±1.2pp). The newest releases lean upward: each of the last 3 annual updates moved the 5-year average the same way - an early signal, not a measured change.*
