abstract: 'Purpose Self-evaluated access and accessibility has been found to be
associated with healthcare seeking and quality of life. Studies have
shown that, however, a vast majority of individuals with disability
living in poor countries have limited access to healthcare influenced by
several barriers. The purpose of this paper is to compare the perception
of general accessibility of health care services and its association
with access barriers and other contextual factors between people with
physical disabilities and counterparts without disability.
Design/methodology/approach This study is a cross sectional survey
involving 213 individuals with physical disabilities and 213
counterparts without disability sampled using a multi-stage method. Data
were collected using a structured questionnaire with sections on
socioeconomic and living conditions, education, health, employment and
access to health care. Data analysis involved using chi(2) for
proportions and T-test and multiple regressions (stepwise) method to
determine significant factors that influence perception on
accessibility. Findings The study finds that people with disabilities
fared worse in various socioeconomic factors such as education,
employment, income and assets possession. People with disabilities also
experience more dimensional barriers and reported poor health system
accessibility. The difference in accessibility continued after adjusting
for other variables, implying that there are more inherent factors that
explain the perception of access for people with disabilities. Practical
implications - Governments should ensure equitable access to health care
delivery for people with disabilities through equitable health policies
and services that are responsive to the needs of people with
disabilities and promote the creation of enabling environment to enhance
participation in health care delivery. Originality/value The authors
