Re: undocumented workers
Why?
And how undocumented do you mean?
There are plenty of illegal workers here, some came over on some kind of visa and over stayed, others who did that were able to work initially but continues when authorisation ended. Then there are those who slinged over the border un-inspected.
They were anywhere and everywhere. Cash in hand picking fruit/veg, manual labour on construction. Even doing regular work, using someone else's identity to fill in the I-9 requirement.

As for "entitled to health care" I don't understand what you mean. It's fairly unlikely that your average illegal is paying health insurance, or receiving it through an employer, so no?.....

Do you have a particular (peculiar?) interest in this subject?
One which I might add has been discussed to death.
