This study aimed to measure unmet healthcare needs and investigate the factors affecting them in female baby boomers (individuals born between 1955 and 1963) using the Korea Health Panel Data 2017 from February to June 2017 by the Korea Institute for Health and Social Affairs and the National Health Insurance Corporation. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, chi-square test, t-test, and multiple logistic regression using SPSS WIN 25.0 program. The results showed that the proportion of unmet healthcare needs was 11.1%, and the primary reason for unmet healthcare needs was the lack of visitation time. Female baby boomers experienced more unmet healthcare needs when they had no spouse (1.63 times), eating problems (2.33 times), and stress (1.31 times). This study is significant because it measured the unmet healthcare needs of women in the baby boomer generation and identified the factors influencing unmet healthcare needs. The study’s results can help provide essential data to decrease the unmet healthcare needs of female baby boomers.
