The consequences of denying health care to illegal immigrant

Leave without access to primary care and specialized services to illegal aliens goes back to the situation in 2000, before the change in the Immigration Act allowed only have a health card to register. And that, to some experts, such as a doctor from Madrid who spent 25 years serving this population, is "back to the eighties." "It is very important to get control of infectious diseases, many are communicable," he says. "And not only benefit the individual but also to their community, which is usually also an immigrant, but also to the general population, which is dealing with," he adds.
Among these diseases is tuberculosis. "In Madrid, immigrants are already 50% of cases," he says. "And efforts to control it will suffer a setback."
Something similar happens with HIV. "About 40% of new diagnoses are," he adds. The Collective of Gays, Lesbians, Transsexuals and Bisexuals of Madrid (COGAM), believes that doing so would "is condemned to death." "The number of immigrants treated in our health programs in 2011 represented 31% in the rapid test program and 81% in care program for sex workers," adds COGAM. Running out card will lead to a situation ends. No card, you can not access the medication. This, in Spain, only occurs in hospitals. And, if sold, costs about 7,000 euros per year. Too much for most.
Clear that foreign patients are going to be a partial exit: go to the emergency. The president of the Spanish Society of Emergency Medicine (Shemesh), Thomas Toranzo, confirms this. "And they are already overburdened services to which you are adding a problem," he says.
Because, according Toranzo, "can not stop people from going to the emergency room." "The definition of that state, is subjective, according to World Health Organization (WHO). And everyone has to be addressed. Only then can decide whether it was a case of genuine emergency, "the expert.
"We will ask for attention that we can not", he says. For example, a person comes to the emergency room and was detected in a tumor stain. "And we can not refer you to a specialist, an oncologist to read if you have cancer." That will impact "in which there are conflicts in the services, and will affect practitioners, but also users," said Toranzo.
Antonio Diaz de Freijo, Karibu NGO, says that because "since the crisis began, we are noticing an increased demand." Their partnership, which means welcome in Swahili, serves about 1,000 people a year. "Many do not even know that they can go to the emergency room, others can not cover pay prescribe medication to them," he adds.
That's a problem to be found, according to Vladimir Pascual, president of the Hispano-Ecuadorian Rumiñahui, many families. "The move makes it more vulnerable to a group that already is in itself", he claims. "Leave no health coverage to these people can lead to problems of public health and increase the flow in the emergency room, so this alleged savings will not be so." "This undermines the public health of people and is very dangerous. Will emerge parallel health care, will increase the self-medication and they will send and bring drugs from other countries. "
