Migration context of emergency department patients and patterns of their in- and outpatient healthcare utilization – analysis of three INDEED study centers in Berlin
Our routine data analysis highlighted differences in healthcare pathways between ED patients with and without a presumed migration context in Germany. The likely complex and multifactorial reasons behind these disparities warrant further investigation, preferably by prospective studies. Understanding these factors can enhance the promotion of healthcare provision that is more sensitive to a diverse society.
