MEASURING PROGRESS IN HEALTH AND HEALTH CARE: HOW DOES ESTONIA COMPARE WITH OTHER EU AND OECD COUNTRIES? Gaetan Lafortune, OECD Health Division Conference in Tallinn, 25 April 2016
Life expectancy has increased strongly in Estonia over the past 20 years… Source: OECD Health Statistics (based on data from Eurostat) 2
But still remains about 3 years lower than the OECD average Source: OECD Health Statistics 2015 (based on data from Eurostat) 3
Healthy life expectancy has also increased in Estonia over the past 10 years… Source: Eurostat Database 4
But still remains slightly below the EU average Source: Eurostat Database 5
Health inequalities vary not only by gender, but also across socio-economic groups • The most educated Estonian men can expect to live 15 years longer and women 8 years longer than the least educated (compared to a gap of 3 -4 years in Sweden) Gap in life expectancy at age 30 by sex and educational level, 2012 (or latest year) Men Women Source: Health at a Glance 2015 (based mainly on Eurostat) 6
What are the determinants of (healthy) life expectancy and health inequalities? Non-health care determinants of health Equity Health status Health care system performance Quality Access Expenditure Efficiency Health system design, policy and context Source: OECD, 2006 7
Smoking among adults has come down in Estonia as in other OECD countries Source: OECD Health Statistics (data from Estonia from Finbalt survey) 8
But alcohol consumption has increased and remains a major public health issue Source: OECD Health Statistics 9
30% of young people at age 15 in Estonia have been drunk at least twice in their lives Source: HBSC Survey 2013 -14 10
Obesity rates among adults are rising as in other OECD countries Source: Health at a Glance 2015 11
WHAT IS THE PERFORMANCE OF THE ESTONIAN HEALTH SYSTEM? 12
Health expenditure per capita in Estonia is less than half the OECD average (2013) Note: Expenditure excludes investments, unless otherwise stated. 2. Data refers to 2012. Source: Health at a Glance 2015 13
Health expenditure as share of GDP is also much lower than the OECD average (2013) Note: Excluding investments, unless otherwise stated. 1. Data refers to 2012. Source: Health at a Glance 2015 14
Access: More people in Estonia report unmet medical care needs Note: Unmet care needs for following reasons: too expensive, too far to travel, or waiting time. Source: EU-SILC 2013 15
Number of doctors per population in Estonia is equal to OECD average Notes: 1. Data include not only doctors providing care for patients, but also those working in health sector as managers, educators, researchers, etc. (adding another 5 -10% of doctors). 2. Data refer to all doctors licensed to practice (resulting in large over-estimation of doctors in Portugal). Source: Health at a Glance 2015 16
But the number of nurses is much lower than OECD average Notes: 1. Data include not only nurses providing care for patients, but also those working in health sector as managers, educators, researchers, etc. 2. Data refer to all nurses who are licensed to practice. 3. Austria reports only nurses employed in hospital. Source: Health at a Glance 2015 17
Waiting times for planned surgery have decreased a lot in Estonia in recent years Cataract surgery, waiting times from specialist assessment to treatment, 2007 to 2014 (or 2013) Source: OECD Health Statistics 2015 18
Quality of care: Hospital admission for chronic diseases is relatively high in Estonia Asthma and COPD hospital admission in adults, 2013 (or nearest year) Note: Three-year average for Iceland Luxembourg. Source: OECD Health Statistics 2015 19
Cancer care: Survival is good for some types of cancer, but remains low for others Cervical cancer five-year relative survival Source: Health at a Glance 2015 Breast cancer five-year relative survival 20
WHAT IS THE QUALITY OF THE ESTONIAN HEALTH INFORMATION SYSTEMS? 21
Very high response rate to OECD/Eurostat/ WHO-Europe annual joint data collection (response to 2015 Joint Questionnaire on non-monetary health care statistics) Note: Based on 129 variables (not including the new module on health workforce migration) 22
Estonia faces same challenge as other countries: Better monitor quality & efficiency • OECD planning to support country efforts to further develop and harmonise: – Patient-reported experience measures (e. g. , quality of consultations with doctors) – Patient-reported outcomes measures (e. g. , pre- and postoutcomes of health interventions) – Efficiency measures in primary care, hospital care, long-term care and end-of-life care • Working in cooperation with European Commission and WHO to improve comparability and relevancy of data, and reduce data collection burden on countries 23
