Migration has increased worldwide due to multiple causes. In our country, foreigners account for 4.5% of the population of whom 69% come from neighboring countries. The Law of Migration N°25.871 guarantees equal rights for immigrants and Argentinians. In Commune 8 (City of Buenos Aires) 19.9% of the population is foreign born. Their primary care attention is covered by, among others, Health Care and Community Action Centers N° 5 and 18. Hospital Juan P. Garrahan is a regional referral center. The aim of this study was to describe the characteristics of the response of the Health Care System, specifically, comparing access to and satisfaction with first-level care and disease prevention among immigrant and native Argentinian families.Methods:
A multicenter, observational, cross-sectional study was conducted through semi-structured interviews with immigrant and native Argentinian families between July 2014 and June 2015. Results were expressed in rates and percentages overall and comparing both groups.Results:
