dc.description.abstract | This study examines whether English proficiency and geographic context explain health insurance status among older Latino and Asian immigrants in the U.S. Drawn from the 2010–2012 ACS PUMS, 57,936 Latino and 47,742 Asian immigrants aged 65 and older were selected. Logistic regression analysis was conducted for the U.S. as a whole and separately by geographic region. In the entire U.S., having limited English proficiency (LEP) and being proficient in English (EP) increased odds of being uninsured among Latino immigrants, whereas LEP and EP decreased odds of being uninsured among Asian immigrants. In the stratified analyses for geographic regions, there were significant ethnic differences in the directionality of the relation between English proficiency and uninsured status. Regional institutions should take care to expand access to information on health care and insurance coverage to racial/ethnic minorities, taking into account the characteristics of these groups at the local level. © 2019, Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature. | - |
