摘要：

Since 2015 immigration has increased significantly into Colombia. As immigrants who are not insured to the national health system present to public hospitals for medical care. However, there is little knowledge about the prevalence of communicable and non-communicable diseases amongst them. Ours was a cross-sectional study at a university hospital reviewing 154 medical records of Venezuelan immigrants treated by the Internal Medicine Specialty between 2017 & 2018. Non-communicable diseases representing 66.3% are the main cause of hospitalization, possibly owing to poor primary care.
