世界各地的非法移民(UI)数量各不相同，大多数居住在美国。美国有超过1200万的研究所，满足这一群体的医疗保健需求带来了独特的挑战和机遇。大多数研究所没有保险，依靠安全网卫生系统提供医疗服务。由于年龄较小，这一人群通常被认为比美国总体人口更健康，但他们有特定的健康状况和风险。缺乏足够的覆盖面；然而，有一些例子说明了如何更好地满足统计研究所的卫生保健需求。
The number of undocumented immigrants (UIs) varies worldwide, and most reside in the United States. With more than 12 million UIs in the United States, addressing the health care needs of this population presents unique challenges and opportunities. Most UIs are uninsured and rely on the safety-net health system for their care. Because of young age, this population is often considered to be healthier than the overall US population, but they have specific health conditions and risks. Adequate coverage is lacking; however, there are examples of how to better address the health care needs of UIs.
