Article Synopsis
- The study examines why foreign-born workers have lower rates of employer-sponsored health insurance compared to native-born Americans.
- It finds that noncitizen immigrants experience significantly lower coverage rates, while differences between native-born and naturalized citizens are minimal when controlling for various factors.
- The main reason for the gap is the lower likelihood of noncitizens working for firms that offer health insurance, although once employed by such firms, their eligibility and acceptance rates for coverage are only slightly lower.
