Healthcare provision for displaced people in transit: Analyses of routinely collected data from INTERSOS clinics at the Ukrainian border with Moldova and Poland
Our findings shed light on the healthcare needs of forcibly displaced populations during transit, a stage often overlooked in migration health research. They underscore the diverse healthcare needs of forcibly displaced populations, emphasizing the necessity for humanitarian aid programs to acknowledge and address this diversity. Accessing data on displaced populations' healthcare needs in transit can help the preparing and planning of healthcare services for these populations in host or destination countries. Ensuring objective anonymization and preventing patient re-identification are essential, particularly in safeguarding refugee privacy and data protection to avoid the misuse of their data.
