ABSTRACT

Objective. To analyze the self-rated health (SRH) of migrants born in Venezuela using the Survey of Recent Immigration (LAMP-ENIR 2021). Materials and methods. The survey collected information of migrants in three cities in Colombia-Cúcuta, Barranquilla and Santa Martha–, San José Costa Rica and Santiago de Chile. We analyze if the SRH varies by city and the changes before and after the international move; and the association between the SRH and the sociodemographic profile, the type of occupation and the education of migrants. We estimated ordinal and logistic models to identify the factors related to the SRH and changes before and after the migration. Results. We found significative differences in the SRH by sex, occupation and among cities; in addition, women, those out of the labor force and those who reported pre-existing diseases have a higher probability of expressing a deterioration in their health after the migration occurred. Conclusions. Disadvantages are emphasized in the SRH regarding the type of employment of migrants, but not regarding education. The differences between host countries may be associated with particularities in migration management, integration policies and access to health.
