Assumptions and limits

The result is derived only from the 2 inputs listed above. Anything not among them is not part of the calculation.
In particular, this calculator does not take inflation, tax, fees or charges or compounding frequency into account.
Figures are rounded for display to 3 decimal places, so totals built from several rounded parts can differ slightly from the unrounded arithmetic.

How these calculators are built and tested is described on the Methodology page. If a figure looks wrong, please report it.

Is coverage the same as access?

No. Nominal enrolment does not guarantee affordable, available services, which is why service coverage indices are also tracked.

What does universal health coverage require?

Everyone receiving needed quality services without financial hardship, which combines service coverage and financial protection.
