Little is known regarding the health care utilization patterns of refugees resettled in the United States. We analyzed the Annual Survey of Refugees (ASR), a nationally representative survey of recently resettled refugees, to assess these patterns. Anonymized 2016 ASR data were examined for refugees 16 years old who arrived from 2011 to 2014. Refugees most often used private physicians (34%), health clinics (19%), and emergency rooms (14%). Approximately 15% reported no regular source of care, and 34% had health insurance for 1 month of the prior year. Results indicate differing health care use and coverage, revealing opportunities for educational interventions.
对于在美国重新安置的难民的医疗保健利用模式，人们了解甚少。我们分析了《难民年度调查》（ASR），这是一项对近期重新安置的难民具有全国代表性的调查，以评估这些模式。对2016年ASR的匿名数据进行了审查，对象是2011年至2014年抵达的16岁难民。难民最常使用私人医生（34%）、健康诊所（19%）和急诊室（14%）。约15%的人表示没有固定的医疗保健来源，34%的人在上一年中有1个月享有医疗保险。结果表明医疗保健使用情况和覆盖范围存在差异，这揭示了进行教育干预的机会。
