Access to Health Care
Winter 1999/2000
Inquiry, vol.36, no.4 (Winter 1999/2000): 390-399
James D. Reschovsky
Abstract:
his analysis examines the effects of health maintenance organizations
(HMOs) on access to care among the privately insured, nonelderly population. After
controlling for population and location differences, HMO and non-HO enrollees differ
little in reports of unmet or delayed care needs. Yet type of insurance affects the source
of access problems. HMO enrollees face lower financial barriers to care and are more
likely to report a regular source of care than those enrolled in other types of insurance,
but they are more likely to report access problems related to the organization of care
delivery.
