ABSTRACT
The number of undocumented migrant workers in Korea is increasing. They are not covered by national health insurance, and thus find it difficult to access medical services. A number of medical service teams from religious organizations and some hospitals provide targeted services to migrant workers through special programs, but they face many limitations of scope and resources. In a globalized world, undocumented migrant workers should not be treated as simply passing through. Health care for these guests to our country should be of the quality we would expect for our neighbors and families.
