ABSTRACT
We examined self-reported inability to access to needed medical care and reasons for not accessing medical care among US-representative adult Medicaid enrollees, disaggregated across 10 Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander ethnic groups. Chinese (-4.54 percentage points [PP], P < .001), Other Asian (-4.42 PP, P < .001), and Native Hawaiian (-4.36 PP, P < .001) enrollees were significantly less likely to report being unable to access needed medical care compared with non-Hispanic White enrollees. The most common reason reported was that a health plan would not approve, cover, or pay for care. Mitigating inequities may require different interventions specific to certain ethnic groups.
