Isi artikel

This article uses the dissemination technique of performance ethnography to present findings from semi-structured interviews conducted with 150 individuals in southern California in summer 2003. Qualitative inquiry informed the methodology using purposive sampling, selecting individuals who are employed and uninsured for health services. Participants were recruited through ads in newspapers, magazines, the World Wide Web, and snowball sampling. Interviews were audio-taped, transcribed, and content-analyzed with NUD*IST software. Results were presented as a formal report in a legislative briefing at the Sacramento, California, State Capitol. The intent of this article is to use performative social science to engage readers, the public, and policymakers to address difficult issues associated with the lack of health insurance
