Abstract

The goal of integrating immigrants into society in the countries, where they are hosted is a key component of European immigration policy. This integration process can be supported, if the social policy in health care offers accessible and efficient services to immigrants, or can be obstructed when migrants find it difficult to have access to health care system of the host countries. This paper explores the perception of immigrants on the issue of health services offered by the welfare state in Greece. In this context, the level of satisfaction of immigrants to the nature and accessibility to all levels of the health system and provided services, the cost and also the level of exclusion of immigrants from these is studied. The results help to emerge useful conclusions regarding the need to improve the effectiveness of the health system for immigrants.
