How this measure is built

Definition
Per capita current health expenditure expressed in US dollars, as published by the WHO Global Health Expenditure Database.
Measure
One slice of Healthcare expenditure per capita ( form: level, segment: current ) . Average healthcare expenditure per person in a given population. Region and period are columns on every record, not slices.
Limitations
Publishers release on different schedules, so the latest period differs by region; compare regions on the same period. Values are shown as published; StatOrigin does not revise, fill gaps or convert currencies.
Verification
Each value, unit, period and place was checked against its source evidence before publication. See the methodology and the corrections process.
