Preventive healthcare-seeking behavior among poor older adults in Mexico: the impact of Seguro Popular, 2000-2012.
This study examined the effect of the Seguro Popular (SP) program in Mexico on preventive care utilization among low-income and uninsured elder beneficiaries. Results of three rounds of the Mexican National Health and Nutrition Survey from 2000, 2006, and 2012 was used. The findings show there was no significant effect on the use of preventive services, including screening for diabetes, hypertension, breast cancer and cervical cancer for adults aged 50 to 75 years.
