我们研究了墨西哥移民的医疗保险覆盖范围如何随着时间的推移而在美国发生变化。横断面估计表明，抵达后的时间与墨西哥男性和女性移民没有保险的可能性呈负相关，其中约三分之一的下降可能归因于墨西哥移民在公民和劳动力市场的融入。然而，在根据人口和劳动力市场因素进行调整后，在美国的时间与医疗保险覆盖范围之间的关系在很大程度上是由于未能对到达时的年龄和到达时间进行控制。来自纵向分析的估计表明，在美国的时间和墨西哥移民的医疗保险之间没有系统的关系，尽管固定影响估计的不精确使得很难得出确定的结论。
We study how the health insurance coverage of Mexican immigrants changes with time in the USA. Cross‐sectional estimates indicate that time since arrival is negatively correlated with the probability of being uninsured for both male and female Mexican immigrants, and about a third of the decline could be attributed to civic and labor market incorporation of Mexican immigrants. However, much of the relationship between time in the USA and health insurance coverage, after adjusting for demographic and labor market factors, is due to failure to control for age at arrival and period of arrival. Estimates from longitudinal analyses suggest that there is no systematic relationship between time in the USA and health insurance of Mexican immigrants, although imprecision in the fixed effects estimates makes it difficult to draw firm conclusions.
