*Reporting differences exist between NYC and Non-NYC for the variable "Financial Coverage".  In this table, Financial Coverage by race/ethnicty is limited to NYC recorded births and NYS  residents. The total number of NYS births is the sum of the totals reported in Tables 4b and 4c.

(1) Race variable is coded differently for births recorded in NYS Exclusive of NYC    and births recorded in NYC. For this table, "White Alone" is pooled with "White"  and "Black Alone" is pooled with "Black". See the Technical Notes for details.

(2) Total Births includes births with race= "Not Stated".

(3) Hispanic is a separate count equal to Hispanic White + Hispanic Black + Hispanic Other + Hispanic Race Not Stated.
