| description | This study uses data from the 1999-2000 SABE survey to analyze socioeconomic inequities in healthcare access, utilization, and quality, for a sample of elderly individuals from Montevideo, Uruguay. We find horizontal inequity favoring the rich in the quality of access to medical visits (lower time spent travelling to the office and waiting in the office), in the probability of medical visits in the past 4 and 12 months, and in the use of preventive services (mamographies, pap scans, and prostate exams). The instrumental variables analysis suggests that inequities are probably underestimated when endogeneity is not taken into consideration. |

Se analiza el grado de inequidad socioeconómica en el uso de servicios médicos de la población adulta mayor montevideana en base a los datos de la encuesta SABE del año 1999 y 2000. Se encuentra inequidad horizontal a favor de los de mayor nivel socioeconómico en la calidad de acceso a la consulta (tiempo en llegar y tiempo en ser atendido), en la probabilidad de haber tenido consultas en los últimos 4 y 12 meses, y en el uso de servicios preventivos (mamografías, Papanicolaou y exámenes de próstata). Del análisis con variables instrumentales se deduce que las inequidades se subestimarían en el caso de no corregir por endogeneidad.
