- Immigration affects the health of those who migrate –and those left behind –in many ways. The effects are both positive and negative. Some impacts are fleeting while others are long-lasting.

- In a finding that challenges the notion that immigrants are freeloaders in the American health care system, a new study shows they are paying a lot more through health care premiums and related taxes than they actually use in care. In fact, the amount that immigrants pay in makes up for some of the amount of health care that non-immigrants use in excess of what they pay. “Some politicians and…November 2022Services & Programs

- Rural communities throughout the United States lack access to health care. While only 14 percent of Americans—almost 46 million people—live in rural areas, rural communities represent nearly two-thirds of primary care health professional shortage areas (HPSAs) in the country.

- Low-wage workers in the US were the most likely to report missing work due to COVID-19 but the least likely to have access to paid sick days or family leave. As many required time off from work to quarantine, recover from serious symptoms, or to care for others, workers were sometimes forced to forgo wages and left without enough food to eat. Pre-pandemic, 24 percent of US workers did not receive…October 2021COVID-19/Coronavirus, Policy and Practice
