abstract: 'This study examined relationships between socioeconomic disadvantage and
unmet health care needs among older adults in Korea adjusting for
predisposing and health need factors. We examined how older adults''
low-income status and working status affect unmet needs for healthcare
over time, and how the association varies by reason for unmet needs
(i.e. financial or non-financial).
We used three waves of data (2009, 2011, 2012) from the Korea Health
Panel (KHP) survey and a multinomial logistic mixed model to analyze how
low socioeconomic disadvantages affects changes in unmet healthcare
needs independently and in combination.
Results showed that near-poor elders were more likely to experience
increased risk of unmet need due to non-financial constraints over time.
When working, near-poor elders risk of unmet healthcare needs due to
financial and non-financial factors increases substantially over time.
Across societies, different subgroups of older adults may be at risk of
unmet healthcare needs, contingent on healthcare policies. Our finding
suggests that in Korea, near-poor working elders are the vulnerable
subgroup at highest risk of unmet healthcare needs. This finding
provides much-needed evidence of heterogeneity of vulnerability in unmet
healthcare needs and can be used to design more affordable and
accessible programs and services for this group. (C) 2016 Elsevier
