(ECONOMICS) survey of 60,000 households in the USA conducted monthly by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. One of two ways in which the BLS gathers statistics on unemployment and hours worked. The other is the establishment survey.

According to an analysis of the 2009 March Current Population Survey, one in five men ages 18-64 - about 21.2 million - are uninsured, compared with 17.2 million women in the same age group. This gap in coverage is consistent across various demographic groups.
