The Latino health paradox is the phenomenon whereby recent Latino immigrants have, on average, better health outcomes on some indicators than Latino immigrants who have lived in the United States longer and U.S.-born Latinos and non-Latino whites. This study examined whether the paradox holds after accounting for health care access and utilization.

Authors examine the short-term implementation lessons from the Medi-Cal expansion to adults 50+ a year after its implementation to inform the planned expansion of full-scope Medi-Cal to adults 26 to 49 years of age in 2024. They also identify policy options to address undocumented immigrant adults aged 50 and over who will continue to be ineligible for Medi-Cal coverage because their incomes exceed the 138 percent FPL eligibility threshold.

Evidence on the impact of information campaigns on meat consumption patterns is limited. Using a dataset of more than 100,000 meal selections over 3 years, authors examine the long-term effects of an informational intervention designed to increase awareness about the role of meat consumption in climate change.

Journal Article
The relationship between immigrant entry and COVID-19 spread in the United States has driven much political discussion and policy, including the implementation of Title 42 by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. To examine the relationship between COVID-19 spread and immigrant entry, authors compared 2020–2021 immigrant flows with local COVID-19 rates, using estimates of border crossings from the U.S.

Journal Article
Authors estimate the avoidance of Medicaid enrollment among Latino and Asian immigrants due to fears about immigration status. In 2019, changes to the “public charge" rule made it difficult for immigrants to receive a green card or permanent residence visa, particularly for those who used health and nutrition benefits. Despite the Biden administration's reversal of these changes, fear and misinformation persist among immigrants.

Journal Article
Since the 1960s the immigrant population in the United States has increased fourfold, reaching 44.7 million, or 13.7 percent of the U.S. population, in 2018. The shifting immigrant demography presents several challenges for U.S. health policy makers. Authors examine recent trends in immigrant health and health care after the Great Recession and the nationwide implementation of the Affordable Care Act.
