The survey showed that over nine in ten (92%) of insured respondents had delayed or avoided medical care because of concern about cost.

But the methodology seems wonky indeed, 1507 should be a decent sample size for statistical purposes. But half of the respondents are self-employed and only 1% is unemployed, which explains the “average out of pocket per income level” section, flying all over the place.

But 92% of insured, having delayed medical care is a massive finding. Although the methodology makes one raise eyebrows, for how they’re able to include income brackets of “0$”, as that at most seems to be 15 respondents.
