    as Canada and France where the traditional focus has per-sisted [1012], a new approach has been taking on greaterrelevance in the form of health policies based on migrantsrights to health and the challenges associated with theirhealth care [8].

    Policies aimed at migrants health can be classifiedinto two types according to their development and scope[10,11,13]: firstly, those of a legislative nature in which therights of migrants to health and health care are establishedby means of laws and decrees and secondly, those designedto put these rights into operation. According to the Adayand Andersen model [14], the latter should tackle thosedeterminants of access to care related to characteristicsof both the provision of services (availability of resources,organization, quality, financing) and the migrant popula-tion (awareness of health services and practices) which aresusceptible to policy interventions.

    In Spain, policies have evolved in parallel with theincrease in foreign population. Initially laws were enactedto regulate and control the flow and stay of foreigners [15].Following this, policies were designed to address the life offoreigners and their cohabitation with nationals and lawswere issued on their rights to health care, among others[16]. Until April 2012, when the new conservative govern-ment limited the healthcare rights of immigrants withouta residence permit (i.e. undocumented immigrants) [17],foreigners residing in Spain who were registered at thecity council had the same rights to health care as Spanishnationals, regardless of their residence status. Emergencycare for unregistered persons and health care for pregnantwomen and under-18 s was also guaranteed [18,19]. Fromthe early 1990 s onwards, the scope of policies was widenedwith the drawing up of multi-sector immigration plans(including the health sector), known as plans for citizen-ship and integration or immigration [20]. These have beendeveloped periodically at national and regional level overthe last two decades [19,21,22]. Alongside these specificplans, policies directed at immigrants have also been incor-porated into the Spanish health system quality plan andregional health plans [11].

    In spite of the fact that health care has been a rightgranted to the migrant population for three decades and ofthe different policies drawn up to enforce this right, previ-ous research indicates that there are inequalities in healthamong this population which signal social inequalities inaccess to care [2325]. An analysis of migrant healthcarepolicies would therefore allow us to determine how theyare affecting or may affect access to care and thus to reori-ent them in order to reduce inequalities in access and movetoward a more equitable healthcare system.

    Analyses of migrant health policies have mostly focusedon those of a legislative nature, particularly on the com-parison of the right to health care in different countrieswith respect to undocumented immigrants [13,2629], theimmigrant population in general [10,30], or the parliamen-tary debate on this right [31]. In recent years, progress hasbeen made in the analysis of responses at health policy

    level with the production of analytical frameworks [32]or comparative analyses of policy content or implemen-tation, either between countries [11,12,32,72] or withina given country [22,33]. However, these analyses do noty 113 (2013) 236 246 237

    focus on access to care. In addition, the analysis should notonly focus on policy factors that influence access to care,meaning to be able to entry/use the services, but also con-sider those policy factors that might influence the quality(relevance, suitability) when providing care to a diversepopulation. This article aims to contribute to our under-standing through an analysis of those elements found innational policy and in regional policies of Andalusia andCatalonia which influence access to care for immigrants.

    2. Materials and methods

    2.1. Design

    A descriptive and comparative study was conducted ofmigrant health care policies through an analysis of theircontent, both at national level and at regional level forCatalonia and Andalusia. This study adopts Walt et al.s def-inition of policy: courses of action that affect the set ofinstitutions, organizations, services and funding arrange-ments of the health system [34]. The analysis is based,firstly, on Aday and Andersens (1974) theoretical frame-work of access, which defines the determinants of accessto care which can be affected by policy intervention. Thepremise is that policy formulation should address bothcharacteristics of the healthcare system and services (vol-ume and distribution of resources; organization of services:entry and structural factors) and characteristics of the pop-ulation (predisposing factors, such as health and healthcareknowledge, beliefs and attitudes; enabling factors: health-care coverage and regular source of care). Furthermorethe analysis focuses on the specific aspects which makeup all policies policy objectives and principles, targetpopulation, design of strategies to meet the objectives,resources allocated to implement the strategies and eval-uation design according to Jans analytical frameworkfor policies [35]. The study was limited to legislative doc-uments and those health policies that are enshrined innational and regional immigration or health plans. Catalo-nia and Andalusia were selected because they both havea high proportion of immigrants (15.7% and 8,6%) [1], yetthey also have different policy developments, governmentsand economic conditions.

    2.2. Search strategy

    An exhaustive search was conducted of policies relatedto migrant health care. In the initial search all existingpolicy documents were included without time limit andwritten in Spanish, Catalan or English. Search engine usedwas Google. Nonetheless, most of the documents werefound searching directly on the web pages of the Ministryof Labor and Social Affairs, the Ministry of Health, and ofthe Departments responsible for health and/or immigra-tion matters within Catalonia and Andalusia. The key wordsused in the search for relevant documents were: immi-grant, migrant, foreigner, ethnic minority, minority groups,

    refugees, displaced persons, asylum seeker, undocumentedor irregular migrants, seasonal workers, persons of othernationalities, persons who have immigrated, vulnerablepopulation, social exclusion groups, access, accessibility,

    uality and health care. As a result 121 documents wereound containing or describing interventions directed athe health care of immigrants. The search was carried outrom March to September 2010.

    .3. Criteria for selection of documents

    National and regional legislative documents (laws,egulations, decrees) and plans of Spain, Catalonia andndalusia level were selected to meet the following crite-ia: (a) they were in force when the search was performedn 2010, and (b) contained health policies directed atmmigrants, or (c) contained evaluations of migrant healtholicies. Of the documents which were potentially relevanto the aims of our study, we selected 19 at national level,5 from Catalonia and 14 from Andalusia (Table 1).

    .4. Analysis of documents

    Documents were analyzed through systematic classi-cation, description and interpretation of their content36], with the support of the Atlas-ti software package.he main categories for analysis were: type of policy; prin-iples and objectives of the policy related to care accessnd quality; strategies that may affect access, which werelassified by sphere of action in accordance with Adaynd Andersens framework (1974) (entry to health system,haracteristics of the immigrants, entry to and utilizationf health services); allocated budget and policy evalua-ion design. In the first stage, national and regional policiesere analyzed on a stand-alone basis and in the second,

    comparative analysis was conducted between nationalolicies and those of Andalusia and Catalonia.

    .5. Quality of data

    In order to ensure the quality of the data used in thenalysis, five analysts participated in the study, each with

    different background (two public health doctors, oneealth economist, one health sociologist, one public healthiologist) and a good knowledge of the subject, the con-ext and policy analysis. Differences among analysts wereiscussed until a consensus was reached.

    .6. Ethical consideration

    This study is part of a broader research project to ana-yze migrants access to quality care in Spain. Conditionsf research, procedure, risk and benefit evaluation, confi-ence and privacy, and informed consent were approvedy the Clinical Research Ethical Committee of Parc Salutar (CEIC-Parc Salut Mar) in 2010.

    . Results

    .1. A number of different types of policies guarantee

    ccess to health care for immigrants

    Policies aimed at guaranteeing healthcare access formmigrants are defined at national and regional level bothy 113 (2013) 236 246

    in legislative documents and in multi-sector plans (edu-cation, employment, housing and health) or health plans(Table 1) which become framework policies. Entitlementto health care and access conditions for immigrants are setout at national level in the law on the rights and freedomof foreigners [18] and are reiterated in the regional lawsanalyzed [3740], which establish the registration of for-eigners with the city council as the only requirement toenable them to exercise this right under the same condi-tions as the native population, regardless of their residencestatus.

    The national and regional plans analyzed define objec-tives and strategies to enforce the right to health care ingeneral or with respect to certain specific health areas(mental health, sexual and reproductive health, etc.). Onenotable difference is that while national and Andalusianmigrant health policies, as well as appearing in multi-sector integration plans, are included in plans directedat the general population, in Catalonia a specific healthplan for immigrants was also drawn up. In addition, inAndalusia migrant-related objectives were included in thehealth providers program contracts (contract/agreementbetween the Department of Health and public healthcareproviders) [41,42,53].

    3.2. Healthcare access as a right and equity, thefoundations of policy principles and objectives

    Rights and duties form the principles on which theobjectives and strategies related to care access are basedin the policies analyzed. On the one hand, they referto health and medical care as a basic human right andas a citizenship right of immigrants, regardless of theiradministrative status [18,4346], and to the right of healthprofessionals to have access to the tools they need to dotheir job to the highest possible standards of quality, apremise which also includes training in Catalonia [46].On the other hand, duties are established, such as thatof the health system to adapt to the changes and spe-cific needs of the population [4650]; that of professionalsto perform their work to the highest possible standards[46,47]; and in the national policies on acquired immu-nodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) [51] and those of Andalusia[48,52], that of the immigrant to protect his/her ownhealth. Also included are the principles of equity, definedas equal opportunity and effective equality of access forequal need [18,41,43,44,4648,51,53], non-discriminationand respect for cultural diversity, reduction of vulnerabil-ity [43] and normalization i.e. seeking integration throughcomprehensive and adapted care within the general carestructures [48,50], avoiding specific parallel structures forimmigrants [37,44,46,54,55].

    The general policy aims have certain points in common,but also display some differences: they all include improve-ments in access and accessibility of services and in qualityof care, and the analyzed regions also aim to adapt servicesto the diversity of the population. Only Catalonia incorpo-

    rates the aim of facilitating the requirements for exercisingthe right to access registration and individual healthcarecard (TSI) [4446] although this is a strategy envisaged inboth regions. At the same time, all policies include aims

    nvolving actions which, whilst not referring directly toccess, contribute toward improving access to quality care.or example, one aim at national level and in Catalonia iso improve awareness of immigrants health and health-are needs; in Andalusia, to reduce inequities in health care40,48,50,56]; and in the national AIDS plan and Andalusia,o improve training for health workers [41,43,48,52,57].

    .3. Predominance of strategies aimed at the adaptationf services to a diverse population

    The various strategies related to access to care set outn the national and regional framework plans analyzed areesigned to tackle those determinants of access which cane modified through policies [14]. Some are directed atntry to the health system or immigrants, but most areirected at adjustments of the health services in aspectselated to entry and above all to the provision of care to

    diverse population. Specific health plans sexual andeproductive health, mental health follow these lines, butncorporate some additional measures for specific popula-ion groups. A general lack of precision is detected in theescription of strategies in terms of what they entail, howhey are to be implemented, who is responsible for theirmplementation and what resources are allocated to them.

    .3.1. Facilitating entry to the health systemThese strategies are defined only at regional level and

    im to make it easier to obtain the healthcare card (TSI)hrough the simplification of administrative procedures.his is also achieved in Catalonia through the creation ofpecial administrative pathways for specific groups (sex

    orkers, minors) [44,46] and in Andalusia through the

    ssue of a temporary healthcare card for undocumentedigrants [42,48,52,53]. In Catalonia the registration pro-ess is facilitated through the unification of criteria [44,46].Creation of spaces for interactiveparticipation [52]

    s.

    3.3.2. Aimed at improving immigrants knowledgeStrategies aimed at immigrants are mainly designed

    to improve their knowledge of the functioning of thehealth system and services through providing information(Table 2): at national level, through information campaignsand, in both regions studied, through healthcare receptionservices and the production of culturally adapted infor-mation in different languages on access regulations andusers rights and duties [4043,45,46,58]. In Andalusia, theuse of new technologies is envisaged for disseminationof information [49,52]. Actions designed to recruit immi-grants into general health programs in Andalusia [53] andinto specific programs at national level and in Catalonia arealso envisaged (women in preventive programs for sexualand reproductive health and sexually transmitted diseases[46,58] or children [58]), without these actions being fullydefined.

    3.3.3. Aimed at health services adaptationThese policies include a few strategies to facilitate entry

    to the health services and particularly, once admitted, toensure the quality of the care received.

    Entry to health services. These strategies envisageimprovements in the availability and organization ofresources (Table 3). At national level, the Citizenship andIntegration Plan envisages improvements in the range andquality of services, without specifying how this is to beachieved [58]. Catalonia and Andalusia establish the adap-tation and/or increase of professional staff according to theincrease in population [44,45,50,59], an increase in eco-nomic resources for public services [45,48,50] and also, inCatalonia, an increase in specialist units for emerging dis-eases [59]. Only Andalusia takes organizational aspects into

    account, such as flexibility of appointment timetables andbringing care closer with home visits [50,52].

    Ensuring quality of care for a diverse population. Mostof the strategies aimed at the services and described in

    (a) Adaptation of programs and services, through twotypes of action: firstly, migration plans envisage the adap-tation of programs and instruments (clinical protocols andguidelines) to the migrant population, but only the nationalplan specifies that this entails adopting a standpoint ofnon-exclusion and equal treatment, promoting multicul-turality, psychosocial health and the design of new workingpractices [58]. Health plans either establish the inclusionof immigrants in existing interventions or define specificmeasures for them [43,46,60]. The National Quality Planalso envisages the identification and transference of posi-tive experiences in the care of immigrants [47].

    Secondly, actions are envisaged to improve knowledgeon migrants health needs and their use of services. Atnational level, systematic data collection is establishedin order to analyze socio-demographic characteristics(country of origin, ethnicity, language) [58], and all theframework plans envisage the development of studies ondeterminants of health, access, social inequalities in health,morbidity and use of services [46,47,52,5558,61]. Like-wise, regional plans include the assessment of quality,satisfaction and costs of migrant health care, without stat-ing how this is to be carried out [42,46,52]. Only Andalusiasets out strategies to address social inequalities in health,while the rest do not explicitly state that the information isgathered with a view to optimizing the delivery of healthcare.

    (b) Improvement in communication between professionaland user. These strategies mainly address linguistic diver-sity by introducing measures for communication in thepatients language. At national level, spoken and writtencommunication strategies are established without furtherspecification [58]. Cultural mediation and simultaneous

    translation on-site or by telephone are included in thenational plan for sexual and reproductive health and in theregional plans analyzed [4446,48,49,56,59,60,62]. Theyall envisage the provision of culturally and linguisticallytimetable [52]

    adapted materials for health education in general and sex-ual and reproductive health in particular [42,46,48,57,60].Improving the listening skills and empathy of health pro-fessionals is a strategy established only at national levelin the sexual and reproductive health plan. In Cataloniaimmigrant women are considered potential health agents,without their functions being clearly defined [55].

    (c) Specific training for health professionals. Thesemeasures, mainly included in the national and regionalmigration plans [46,48,58], are aimed at the generaldevelopment of health professionals cultural compe-tence and knowledge of immigrant-related matters.The content focuses on cultural aspects affecting theprofessionalpatient relationship and the treatment pro-cess, the detection and improvement of health deter-minants, and specific health problems, such as highlyprevalent diseases or specific pathologies in the countryof origin [41,43,45,46,48,49,52,55,57,58,60]. The nationalAIDS plan includes raising awareness among health pro-fessionals, without defining how this is to be achieved[43]. Only Andalusia makes reference to additional train-ing for non-governmental organization (NGO) workers [48]involved in migrant health.

    3.4. Limited planning in policy implementation andevaluation

    The national and regional policies analyzed are not sup-ported by implementation plans, although some definethe actor responsible for this, mainly the Ministry andregional Departments of Health [41,42,44,53,58]. Thenational and regional migration plans [41,44,45,48,58]establish the resources to be destined to each core area.The evaluation of interventions, despite being consid-ered a priority, is only performed in a limited way atregional level [41,42,46,53,56,62,63]. Access to the healthcard is analyzed by calculating TSI coverage for immigrants[41,42,46,53,56,62,63]. Structure and process indicatorsare also established to monitor specific activities related

    to communication: availability of mediators [46,63], useof mediation and translation services [46,62,63], healthprofessional training (number of courses completed)[46,62,63]. Results indicators are established with regard

    4. Discussion

    This comparative content analysis of the policies aimedat migrant health care in Spain has allowed us to broadenour knowledge on its suitability and to identify short-falls with regard to access. This offers policy makers andhealth providers an opportunity to make improvements inmigrant health care, not only in Spain but in other countriesfacing similar challenges [12]. Any interpretation of theresults must take into consideration that the study com-pares policy content and not its implementation and refersto national policies and the policies of two specific regions,even if our results are consistent with an analysis con-ducted in a wider sample of Spanish regions which didnot specifically focus on access [22,33]. Moreover, as itapplies to a specific time period (2010), it has not includedpolicy changes which have come about since then as a con-sequence of the economic and social crisis and politicalchanges currently underway in Spain and Europe.

    The results show that not only were immigrants entitledto heath care in Spain by law regardless of their adminis-trative status, like in some other European countries [29],but that this right was also enforced by issuing a numberof national and regional policies targeted at guaranteeingentry to the services and reducing potential problems ofquality related to providing care for a diverse population.These policies are backed up by specific strategies, as is gen-erally recommended [64]. However, it is worth noting thatthere is a predominance of strategies aimed at ensuringquality of care once in the system (adapting health services,improving communication and health personnel training)over those related to entry to the system and services, inline with the results of the abovementioned previous anal-ysis [33]. This may be explained by the fact that at the timeof the analysis, the Spanish health system offered universalcoverage, so care was a right granted to all citizens and itwas not anticipated that anyone would be excluded fromthe system. Moreover migrant health policies are explic-itly based on the principles of equal access for equal need,non-discrimination and equal opportunity; and a numberof strategies are addressed at identifying social inequalitiesin health or access to care, which is a way of monitoring theeffectiveness of the system in achieving its equity objective,as the presence of unfair inequalities (not related to need)would signal problems in the health systems equity.

    For entry to the health system, both regions analyzedcoincide in establishing strategies to reduce the barriersfor obtaining the healthcare card (TSI), such as the vari-ability of requirements in primary care centers, some ofwhich were not set by law and were particularly rele-vant to undocumented immigrants, like requesting proofof social security contributions [65,66]. However, these

    two regional policies differ in their approach to accessfor the undocumented migrant population: whilst Catalo-nia focuses its efforts on facilitating registration at thecity council, Andalusia appears to sidestep registrationy 113 (2013) 236 246 243

    problems by issuing a temporary healthcare card at thehealth services. These results seem to indicate that whilstthe regular immigrant population faces similar situa-tions in both regions, healthcare access for undocumentedmigrants may be easier in Andalusia than in Catalonia, asin the former access depends on the health service itselfand not on any other administrative body. However, nostudies have been conducted to date on the potential diffi-culties involved in the administrative process to obtain thetemporary card or its effects on access in Andalusia.

    Strategies to improve access targeted at migrants aremainly centered on raising awareness of the functioning ofthe health system and services, providing linguistically andculturally adapted information. This strategy should reduceproblems stemming from lack of awareness, such as delay,non-use or inappropriate use of services [65,6769], andis especially relevant to recently arrived immigrants. How-ever, it runs the risk of not reaching its target populationat the right time, due to the fact that information is dis-tributed within healthcare centers, once the migrant hasalready been admitted; moreover, it may be of little useto persons of a low socio-cultural level [65,67]. Taking thisinto consideration, in addition to promoting the use of newcommunication technologies, Andalusia lays out strategiesfor working alongside NGOs to disseminate informationon the services and facilitate access. This may be a moreappropriate way to reach this population when they firstarrive, as long as NGOs do not assume the responsibility forproviding health care which corresponds to public services.

    With regard to the provision of quality health care,strategies are mainly aimed at adapting programs andinstruments, improving communication and providingtraining for health professionals, all of which points to awill to increase the responsiveness of the health system tonew users and to provide them with care which is con-sistent with their needs [70]. These strategies address acentral challenge in the provision of care to a diverse pop-ulation in terms of language, religion and health beliefs[71,72]. The strategies are similar in the national andregional policies analyzed and are in line with those con-sidered good practice in migrant health care in Europe [69].However, not all those deemed necessary are included,such as increasing consultation time per patient [69,73],which would help to solve a problem described in theprovision of care to migrants in Spanish health services[68].

    The analysis also reveals other weaknesses in policyformulation which may hinder implementation: insuffi-cient definition of strategies, alongside limited allocationof resources and scant evaluation of results. Weaknessesin policy-making and implementation have also beendescribed in other European Union countries [12]. Forexample, introducing cultural mediators entails, in addi-tion to defining their role, an increase in staff and staffingcosts, yet this is not usually accompanied by a corre-sponding increase in budget [12,73], or by training forhealth workers in the use of mediators, without which

    this resource tends to be underexploited [73]. This isa particularly relevant point for those strategies whichin themselves imply an increase in resources (such asadapting the volume and distribution of services to the

    opulation size and location), in the sense that if they areot accompanied by a commensurate increase in budget,hey will never be more than a mere statement of princi-les. This might have been partially overcome in Andalusiay including migrant-related objectives in the programontract. Further analysis of what is actually happeningn the health services would be necessary to establish tohat extent these policies are being effectively imple-ented.The health policies studied differ more in terms of

    pproach than content. At national level and in Andalusia,trategies aimed at the migrant population are includedithin general policies and enforced in program contracts,hilst in Catalonia a specific health plan was developed.his may be a reflection of different trends: while in therst case, it is turned into an opportunity to consider theultural diversity of the population as a whole, in Cataloniammigrants are recognized as being at a social disadvan-age and specific plans are drawn up to facilitate access onqual terms.

    . Conclusion

    Spain has addressed the challenge of ensuring accesso appropriate care for migrants by means of the devel-pment of health policies to tackle potential barriers tontry to the health system and services and to ensureiversity-oriented care. The strengths detected based onhe right to health care on equal terms, improvementsn the responsiveness of services and convergence withnternational good practice are a good starting pointrom which to sustain the further development of poli-ies to improve access and ensure quality of care for aiverse population. However, the weaknesses identified nsufficient definition of measures, budgets and evaluation

    highlight the need for more planning and monitor-ng, and reflect one of the great challenges to be facedn effective policy-making and implementation to ensureccess to quality care. With this in mind, further researchhould be conducted to analyze whether differences in pol-cy formulation between Andalusia and Catalonia (activeecruitment of immigrants into health programs throughGOs, direct issue of a healthcare card and policy reinforce-ent in program contracts in the former case) translate

    nto different results with regard to immigrants access toealth care.Finally, the entitlement to health care has just been

    estricted for undocumented migrants to emergency careith a new decree (16/2012), which is in contradiction withxisting policies and international agreements. It should bemphasized that on top of the fact that a right has been vio-ated, and the negative effects this will have on migrantsealth (loss of control of chronically ill patients, early diag-osis and treatment and other preventive activities), theseolicy changes will probably affect the health system due ton increase in the use of emergency services (the only path

    till open to some) for situations which could be resolvedn primary care, and may even endanger public health,ue to the lack of control of communicable diseases. Thesehanges should thus form the focus of future research.
