Healthcare coverage
The share of a population covered for a core set of health services offers an initial measure of access to care and financial protection. Most OECD countries have achieved universal or near-universal coverage for a core set of health services, which usually include consultations with doctors, tests and examinations, and hospital care.
<p />This dataset presents the latest data for government (compulsory) health insurance, and for the various types of voluntary health insurance coverage.
