The Latest Research, Commentary, And News From Health Affairs

Tuesday, July 6, 2021

Dear John,

Don't miss Health Affairs' first-ever issue on borders, immigrants,
and health policy.

Borders, Immigrants & Health

[link removed]

Roughly 45 million immigrants live in the United States today. With many
people arriving from China, Mexico, India, and other countries each
year, immigration is poised to become a main driver of US population
growth.

As the demography of the immigrant population continues to change,
migration flows from Mexico and Central America have far-reaching policy
implications. Policies affecting immigrants on both sides of the
US-Mexico border contribute to disparities in life expectancy and access
to programs that address essential health, nutrition, and housing needs.

To help make sense of these complicated dynamics, the July issue of
Health Affairs
is
dedicated exclusively to borders, immigrants, and health
.

In the issue you'll find original research, analysis, and binational
perspectives on migration and health policy at the US-Mexico border and
beyond.

Health Affairs readers will recognize familiar themes, with articles on
health care spending and use
,
insurance coverage
,
and health disparities

focusing on immigrant populations and border regions.

Other research explores the effects of specific policy changes on uptake
of Medicaid and SNAP by immigrant essential workers
.
The issue also includes commentary on how COVID-19 could influence
immigration policy

for years to come, along with a personal essay on the psychological
effects of anti-immigration policies
.

Health Affairs is grateful to Arturo Vargas Bustamante of UCLA Fielding
School of Public Health for serving as theme issue adviser. We also want
to thank the California Health Care Foundation, The California
Endowment, and Con Alma Health Foundation for their financial support of
this issue.

Today on Health Affairs Blog,  Katie Keith and coauthors discuss the
recent interim final rule

from the Departments of Health and Human Services, Labor, and Treasury
and the Office of Personnel Management to implement key parts of the No
Surprises Act.

Also, Pranav Puri and coauthors discuss the recent push toward linking
CEO incentives to hospital quality metrics

in addition to financial targets.
