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.

Researchers study the impact of Medicaid funding structures before and after the implementation of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) on health care access for Latinos in New York (Medicaid expansion), Florida (Medicaid non-expansion), and Puerto Rico (Medicaid block grant).

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.

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.

he objective of this study was to examine changes in health care access and utilization for white, Asian, and Latino immigrants associated with the implementation of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) in California. Researchers examined changes in two health care access and two utilization measures among three immigrant racial/ethnic groups. They estimated the unadjusted and adjusted percentage point changes in the pre-ACA and post-ACA periods.

In this policy brief, authors estimate the potential chilling effects of the approved changes to the public charge rule on children in the state of California who are living with at least one parent without a green card. First, authors calculate the number of children who live with at least one parent without a green card (and are therefore potentially subject to the chilling effect) across seven regions in California. Second, for U.S.

Cardiovascular Disease Behavioral Risk Factors Among Latinos by Citizenship and Documentation Status
The authors examined cardiovascular disease behavioral risk factors by citizenship/documentation statuses among Latinos and non-Latino U.S-born whites in the 2011–2015 waves of the California Health Interview Survey (CHIS).

Authors aimed to compare the impact of implementing team-based diabetes care management involving community health workers (CHWs) vs. medical assistants (MA) in community health centers (CHCs) on diabetes care processes, intermediate outcomes, and patients’ experiences of chronic care. Authors used clinical and administrative data and patient surveys pre-intervention and post-intervention. Surveys and key informant interviews of CHC staff assessed barriers and facilitators of implementation.
