About this data
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. This dataset presents the latest data for government (compulsory) health insurance, and for the various types of voluntary health insurance coverage.
