Understanding Observed and Unobserved Health Care Access and Utilization Disparities Among U.S. Latino Adults
Medical Care Research and Review, 06/26/09
Bustamante AV et al. - Latinos of Mexican ancestry consistently demonstrate lower health care access and utilization patterns than non-Mexican Latinos. Health insurance and region of residence were the most important factors that explained observable differences. In contrast, language and citizenship status were relatively unimportant. Although a significant share of these disparities may be explained by observed characteristics, disparities because of unobserved heterogeneity among the different Latino cohorts are also considerable.
