Resumen
COLCHERO, M Arantxa; GOMEZ, Rouselinne y BAUTISTA-ARREDONDO, Sergio. Characterization of the “primary health care cascade” in public services in Mexico in localities with less than 100 000 inhabitants. Salud pública Méx [online]. 2019, vol.61, n.6, pp.734-741. Epub 21-Abr-2021. ISSN 0036-3634. https://doi.org/10.21149/10570.
Objective:
To characterize the demand for public services among the population living in localities with less than 100 000 inhabitants.
Materials and methods:
We used data from the Encuesta Nacional de Salud y Nutrición (Ensanut) 2018. We characterize the primary health care cascade and estimated probit models on the probability of receiving care.
Results:
Among the population that reported a health problem, only 32% received care from a public institution. We found that women, having more than 50 years, being insured and belonging to the highest socioeconomic status -within this population- was associated with a greater probability of receiving care.
Conclusions:
Findings from this study show some of the challenges and opportunities to offer public health care services to the population that lives in more marginalized areas.
