Supplementary notes

Healthcare statistics describe the process of providing and financing health care in countries by referring to health care goods and services, its providers and financing.
For the collection of the data on healthcare expenditure the System of Health Accounts (SHA) and its related set of International Classification for the Health Accounts (ICHA) is used.

Healthcare expenditure by provider (ICHA-HP) — which classifies units contributing to the provision of healthcare goods and services — such as hospitals, residential facilities, ambulatory health care services, ancillary services or retailers of medical goods.

Healthcare expenditure quantifies the economic resources dedicated to health functions, excluding capital investment. Healthcare expenditure concerns itself primarily with healthcare goods and services that are consumed by resident units, irrespective of where that consumption takes place (it may be in the rest of the world) or who is paying for it. As such, exports of healthcare goods and services (to non-resident units) are excluded, whereas imports of healthcare goods and services for final use are included.
