Накратко на български

Правата на гражданите на ЕС за здравеопазване при преместване в друга държава се анализират чрез административните пречки и нагласите на хората. Това помага да се разбере защо някои пациенти срещат трудности при достъпа до медицинска помощ в чужбина.

EU Citizens' Transnational Rights and Health-related Deservingness at the Street-level

Guaranteeing healthcare rights for mobile EU citizens is a precondition for free movement in the Union, and supranational laws have fostered progressive coordination across Member States in this domain. Nevertheless, significant obstacles in accessing healthcare for mobile EU citizens have been frequently reported, revealing the existence of bureaucratic and administrative barriers that affect the realisation of this right at the point of access to Member States’ health systems. Hence, addressing the complex equilibrium between mobile EU citizens’ cross-border rights and Member States’ national health systems appears critical, particularly in times of renewed debates on ‘Social Europe’ and the challenges posed by COVID-19 to intra-EU mobility and healthcare systems. The EU-TRHeaDS project investigates how different health systems interact with intra-EU mobility, focusing on the differences in healthcare solidarity in policies and public attitudes. At the level of policies, the project aims at reconstructing the evolution of the EU and national frameworks regulating the access to residency and healthcare rights for different categories of mobile EU citizens, paying particular attention to the existence of administrative and bureaucratic barriers on the front-line of health systems and the politicisation of the healthcare/intra-EU mobility nexus over the last decades. At the level of attitudes, the project aims at understanding what criteria do individuals mobilise to assess the ‘deservingness’ of mobile EU citizens to access healthcare in another Member State, whether these assessments differ between the general public and health professionals, and the extent to which they turn into systematic discrimination against mobile EU citizens.

Цел на проекта

The recognition of transnational healthcare rights of EU migrant citizens is a precondition for free movement within the Union. Although progressive coordination has been fostered by EU laws, the existence of bureaucratic barriers affecting the realisation of EU citizens’ rights at the point of access to Member States’ healthcare systems has been frequently reported. EU-TRHeaDS investigates how, why and to what extent street-level bureaucrats discriminate against EU migrant citizens who require access to public healthcare. It will combine qualitative policy analysis methodology with a survey experiment with street-level workers operating at the front-line of healthcare services in two Belgian Regions and two Spanish Autonomous Communities. In doing so, it will isolate the causal effect of citizens’ identity markers on street-level decisions, while assessing the impact of different political contexts and types of healthcare systems on street-level work. Theoretically, EU-TRHeaDS links the street-level bureaucracy perspective in public administration studies with the nascent debate on health-related deservingness to test the institutional, political and individual determinants of street-level decisions. Empirically, it fills two gaps in the welfare-mobility nexus scholarship, shifting the focus from welfare to healthcare entitlements, and focusing on implementation practices rather than on countries’ formal policies. Methodologically, it provides a comprehensive approach to the study of street-level decisions, carrying out an original comparative research that combines qualitative and experimental methods. Substantively, EU-TRHeaDS unveils how the complex equilibrium between EU citizens’ transnational rights and Member States’ bounded healthcare systems materialises, which is critical in times of renewed debates on “Social Europe” and the challenges posed by COVID-19 to intra-EU mobility.
