Intra-Ethnic Coverage Disparities among Latinos and the Effects of Health Reform.

Sergio Gonzales1, Benjamin D Sommers2.   

Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To examine the patterns of insurance coverage among nine Latino subgroups and assess heterogeneous effects of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) among these groups. DATA SOURCES: American Community Survey (2010-2014). STUDY
DESIGN: We examined pre-ACA disparities in coverage using linear probability models. Then, we used interrupted time series and triple-difference models to evaluate coverage changes associated with the ACA and Medicaid expansion, respectively. PRINCIPAL
FINDINGS: Pre-ACA coverage disparities between Latino subgroups were nearly 30 percentage points-larger than the gap between whites and Latinos as a whole. Coverage changes associated with the ACA and Medicaid expansion differed significantly between subgroups, with the largest gains among South Americans, Central Americans, and Mexicans.
CONCLUSIONS: Latino subgroups show marked heterogeneity in baseline coverage rates and responses to the ACA. © Health Research and Educational Trust.
