Post an EU jobThe EuroHealth consumer Index 2005 ranks the national healthcare of the twelve largest European countries according to how 'user-friendly' they are.
When the twelve national health care systems are compared
, the Netherlands, Switzerland and Germany lead the way, scoring 48, 47 and 46 points out of 60 obtainable respectively (Poland ended up with least points - 25 - with Italy scoring 29 points).
The EuroHealth Consumer Index is compiled by a private Swedish company and is created by selecting a number of indicators describing the 'user-friendliness' of national healthcare systems. Taking a strong consumer view, the index adds to existing evaluations carried out by institutions such as the WHO
and the OECD
.
Currently ranking only the twelve largest European countries, the index will be expanded in 2006 to cover the whole of the EU-25.
