Euro health consumer index 2015

report

Björnberg, A. (2016). Euro health consumer index 2015: report. Health Consumer Powerhouse Ltd.

European healthcare is steadily improving, in spite of alarm bells about financial crisis austerity measures, aging population and migration turmoil. Survival rates of heart disease, stroke and cancer are all increasing. Infant mortality, perhaps the most descriptive single indicator, keeps going down. This is a main conclusion from the 2015 Euro Health Consumer Index (EHCI), published by the Health Consumer Powerhouse (HCP) Ltd. The EHCI, started in 2005, is the leading comparison for assessing the performance of national healthcare systems in 35 countries. The Netherlands is the only country which has consistently been among the top three in the total ranking of any European Index the Health Consumer Powerhouse has published since 2005. The only Index in recent years where the NL have not been among the top three countries was the Tobacco Harm Prevention Index, where a rather liberal Dutch attitude was detected.
