Description
Jingqian Li and Yu Wang study how access to public services shapes migrant health in China in this 2024 paper. Migrants often face uneven access to schools, clinics, and housing support. Local governments need evidence on what that access does to health.
Data came from a national survey of migrants held in 2017. The team use several statistical designs, including methods that handle hidden bias. Better access was linked to better reported health across migrant groups. Pathways behind the link were tested with added analyses. The results argue that service access is a health policy, not just an admin choice. Cities competing for workers may note the finding as well.
