Recently, the regulation of coverage for immigrants was changed with some improvements for new arrivals (see Box 2). To mitigate this structural problem, there are normative guidelines developed by the National Board for Health and Welfare and coordination efforts by the Swedish Association of Local Authorities and Regions where regions agree about common rules and strategies. Since Sweden has a relatively large immigration, defining the right to health services for asylum seekers as well as irregular immigrants has been a challenge. While adult asylum seekers have access only to acute care and maternal care, all children, regardless of residence status, have full right to services.
