abstract: 'BACKGROUND. Latinos continue to be the most uninsured racial/ethnic
|
||||
|
||||
group of US children, but not enough is known about the risk factors for
|
||||
|
||||
and consequences of not being insured in Latino children.
|
||||
|
||||
OBJECTIVE. The objective of this study was to identify the risk factors
|
||||
|
||||
for and consequences of being uninsured in Latino children.
|
||||
|
||||
METHODS. A cross-sectional survey was conducted of parents at urban,
|
||||
|
||||
predominantly Latino community sites, including supermarkets, beauty
|
||||
|
||||
salons, and laundromats. Parents were asked 76 questions on access and
|
||||
|
||||
health insurance.
|
||||
|
||||
RESULTS. Interviews were conducted of 1100 parents, 900 of whom were
|
||||
|
||||
Latino. Uninsured Latino children were significantly more likely than
|
||||
|
||||
insured Latino children to be older (mean age: 9 vs 7 years) and poor
|
||||
|
||||
(89\% vs 72\%) and to have parents who are limited in English
|
||||
|
||||
proficiency (86\% vs 65\%), non-US citizens (87\% vs 64\%), and both
|
||||
|
||||
employed (35\% vs 27\%). Uninsured Latinos were significantly less
|
||||
|
||||
likely than their insured counterparts to have a regular physician (84\%
|
||||
|
||||
vs 99\%) and significantly more likely not to be brought in for needed
|
||||
|
||||
medical care because of expense, lack of insurance, difficulty making
|
||||
|
||||
appointments, inconvenient office hours, and cultural issues. In
|
||||
|
||||
multivariable analyses, parents who are undocumented or documented
|
||||
|
||||
immigrants, both parents working, the child''s age, and the \$4000 to
|
||||
|
||||
\$9999 and \$15 000 to \$19 999 family income quintiles were the only
|
||||
|
||||
factors that were significantly associated with a child''s being
|
||||
|
||||
uninsured; neither Latino ethnicity nor any other of 6 variables were
|
||||
|
||||
associated with being uninsured. Compared with insured Latino children,
|
||||
|
||||
uninsured Latino children had 23 times the odds of having no regular
|
||||
|
||||
physician and were significantly more likely not to be brought in for
|
||||
|
||||
needed medical care because of expense, lack of health insurance,
|
||||
|
||||
difficulty making appointments, and cultural barriers.
|
||||
|
||||
CONCLUSIONS. After adjustment, parental noncitizenship, having 2 parents
|
||||
|
||||
work, low family income, and older child age are associated with being
|
||||
|
||||
an uninsured child, but Latino ethnicity is not. The higher prevalence
|
||||
|
||||
of other risk factors seems to account for Latino children''s high risk
|
||||
|
||||
for being uninsured. Uninsured Latino children are significantly more
|
||||
|
||||
likely than insured Latino children to have no regular physician and not
|
||||
|
||||
to get needed medical care because of expense, lack of health insurance,
|
||||
|
||||
difficulty making appointments, and cultural barriers. These findings
|
||||
|
||||
indicate specific high-risk populations that might benefit most from
|
||||
|
||||
targeted Medicaid and State Child Health Insurance Program outreach and
|
||||
|
||||
enrollment efforts.'
