Overview

Systematic review shows community-based interventions improve health coverage for migrant children in high-income countries, highlighting the need for tailored approaches.

Key Points

  • Migrant children face health and social barriers in high-income countries, which impact their health outcomes.
  • Community-based interventions like Medicaid expansions improve access to healthcare, including prenatal services.
  • Twelve significant interventions were evaluated, with varying impacts on health behaviors, obesity, and mental health.
  • Longer follow-up and scalable interventions are necessary to ensure sustained health improvements for migrant children.
