Concerning the recent discovery of vaping related illnesses, Kansas was found to have a 4.6 percent prevalence of e-cigarette smoking. Our analysts wanted to bring awareness to this growing issue (and how this could affect health coverage for users) by compiling Center of Disease Control (CDC) data and found: Key findings: Kansas is tied with New Hampshire, North Carolina, and Idaho at 24th-highest usage rates in the country. States with the highest rate of vapers: Oklahoma (7.1 percent), Kentucky (6.1), Indiana (6.0), Tennessee (5.9), and Wyoming (5.8). States with the lowest rate of vapers: California (3.0 percent), Vermont (3.1), Connecticut (3.2), Massachusetts (3.3), and Maryland (3.3). 3.9 million middle school and high school aged teens currently vape. We gathered this timely data because if e-cigarettes are declared as a derivative classification of a tobacco product in the eyes of states and insurers, those folks could see a 50 percent increase in their monthly health insurance premium costs.
