Special Symposia:
Innovations in Caring for Immigrants with Vulnerable Immigration Status - Comparing Approaches Across States
Course description
This is a recorded session from the SGIM 2024 Annual Meeting in Boston.
In this symposium, presenters share examples from two health systems that have committed to providing innovative care for immigrants: The Access Partnership (TAP) at Johns Hopkins and the Immigrant & Refugee Health Center (IRHC) at Boston Medical Center. Through discussions with experts in these two health systems, we will present examples of programmatic successes and challenges in meeting the needs of this growing population, and compare how differences in state healthcare coverage options for migrant patients can be addressed. Presenters review how these programs were developed, financed, and transformed in the context of Medicaid expansion to meet the needs of this changing population and highlight descriptive data that reveal how our patients interact with the healthcare system. We will focus on how health systems in different settings can respond to the evolving needs of immigrant patients through community-based and collaborative healthcare models, which may serve as a blueprint for other academic institutions aiming to provide care to this population.
