我们利用 2008 年医疗保健跨境利用调查的数据，研究了美国 (US) 医疗保险覆盖计划与美墨边境地区美国居民在墨西哥使用医疗保健服务之间的关系。我们发现，移民没有保险的可能性远高于本土出生的人（63% 和 27.8%）。与有保险的成年人相比，没有健康保险的成年人更有可能在墨西哥购买药物或去看医生。然而，与没有保险的成年人相比，拥有医疗补助保险的成年人更有可能去看墨西哥的牙医。改善美国西南边境地区居民的医疗保健服务需要采取举措，不仅要为大量未参保人口提供保险，还要改善大量保险不足人口获得医疗保健服务的机会。
Using data from the 2008 Cross-Border Utilization of Health Care Survey, we examined the relationship between United States (US) health insurance coverage plans and the use of health care services in Mexico by US residents of the US-Mexico border region. We found immigrants were far more likely to be uninsured than their native-born counterparts (63 versus 27.8 percent). Adults without health insurance coverage were more likely to purchase medications or visit physicians in Mexico compared to insured adults. However, adults with Medicaid coverage were more likely to visit dentists in Mexico compared to uninsured adults. Improving health care access for US residents in the southwestern border region of the country will require initiatives that target not only providing coverage to the large uninsured population but also improving access to health care services for the large underinsured population.
