Health care utilisation and immigration in Spain.

José-Ignacio Antón1, Rafael Muñoz de Bustillo.   

Abstract

The aim of this work was to analyse the use of health care services by immigrants in Spain. Using a nationally representative health survey from 2006-2007 and negative binomial and hurdle models, it was found that there is no statistically significant difference in the patterns of visits to general practitioners and hospital stays between migrants and natives in Spain. However, immigrants have a lower access to specialists and visit emergency rooms with a higher frequency than nationals.
