Abstract

Migrant women encounter specific health risks and challenges at host countries, as well as unequal access to social and health services. This qualitative study explores the health needs and factors that hamper access to and utilization of healthcare services as reported by migrant women recently arrived (<5 years) in Spain and Greece. Based on four focus-group discussions and seven individual interviews, our findings highlight the effect that structural vulnerability combined with intercultural factors may have on the utilization, acceptability and the overall experience of healthcare.
