Health at a Glance 2015
OECD Indicators

This new edition of Health at a Glance presents the most recent comparable data on the performance of health systems in OECD countries.

Compared with the previous edition, this new edition includes a new set of dashboards of health indicators to summarise in a clear and user-friendly way the relative strengths and weaknesses of OECD countries on different key indicators of health and health system performance, and also a special focus on the pharmaceutical sector. This edition also contains new indicators on health workforce migration and on the quality of health care.
