The World Health Report, World by Country, 1997

This dataset is from the World Health Report 2000 by the World Health Organization from Annex Table 1 Health system attainment and performance in all Member States, ranked by eight measures, estimates for 1997.

"Annex Table 1 is designed as a guide for using Annex Tables 5-7, 9 and 10. Each measure

of goal attainment and performance - disability-adjusted life expectancy, health equality in

terms of child survival, responsiveness level, responsiveness distribution, fairness of finan-

cial contribution, performance on level of health, and overall health system performance

-is reported as a league table ranked from the highest level of achievement or performance

to the lowest level. Annex Table 1 lists countries alphabetically and provides the ranks on

each of the measures reported in the other tables. The reader can use Annex Table 1 to

identify quickly where a particular country falls in each table."
