Table 3 Healthcare utilization among all participants by migrant status (total N = 112) and residency status (total N = 110). We used Fisher's exact tests to compare ever having visited a health facility by migrant status and by residency status

	Ever visited a health facility		Never visited a health facility
	N	Row %	N	Row %
					*P-value	**P-value
Migrant status					1.000	0.516
Internal migrant (N = 42)	37	88.1	5	11.9
International migrant (N = 27)	21	77.8	6	22.2
Non-migrants (N = 43)	37	86.0	6	14.0
					^αP-value	^βP-value
Residency status					0.073	0.385
Asylum-seeker with or without documentation (N = 21)	15	71.4	6	28.6
Permanent resident/citizen (N = 85)	76	89.4	9	10.6
Temporary or long-term visa holder (N = 4)	3	0.75	1	0.25
