Considering the difficulties experienced by individuals with chronic conditions in accessing health care prior to the pandemic, and their potential risk for adverse COVID-19 outcomes, it is necessary to understand how their access to health care was affected by the pandemic, relative to others. This study used data from the Survey on Access to Health Care and Pharmaceuticals During the Pandemic to estimate the proportion of individuals in Canada, with and without chronic conditions, who experienced difficulties accessing health care services during the pandemic.
This article uses data from the 2021 Survey on Access to Health Care and Pharmaceuticals During the Pandemic to explore unmet health care needs, and the reported impact of health service disruptions and delays, among First Nations people living off reserve, Métis and Inuit in the provinces during the COVID-19 pandemic. It also explores experiences of discrimination and other service access barriers among Indigenous people.
Results from the Survey on Access to Health Care and Pharmaceuticals During the Pandemic provide a snapshot of self-reported access to health care services from March 2020 to May 2021 among individuals 18 years and older in Canada's 10 provinces. In this infographic, we look at adults who needed health care services during the COVID-19 pandemic but delayed contacting a medical professional.
