ARENAS, Erika; PARKER, Susan; RUBALCAVA, Luis y TERUEL, Graciela. Evaluación del Programa del Seguro Popular del 2002 al 2005. Impacto en la utilización de servicios médicos, en el gasto en salud y en el mercado laboral. El trimestre econ [online]. 2015, vol.82, n.328, pp.807-845. ISSN 2448-718X.
This article examines the impact of Seguro Popular (SP) in health services utilization, in the labor market, and in household health expenditures. Benefiting from longitudinal data from the Mexican Family Life Survey, we use propensity score matching techniques to analyze the data by gender and population origin. In general, the SP has not impacted the number of hospitalizations and out-patient consultations, with the exception of urban women. The analysis by institution shows that, in urban populations, the SP has increased external consultations in the health care facilities provided by the Health Ministry. The SP shows a negative impact in the Mexican Institute of Social Security coverage, and in the formal employment of urban women and rural men. At the household level, we do not find any effect on household health expenditures.
