Definition
- Health status indicators are a series of standardized measurements and parameters that define the health level of a population or a nation. The rising costs of health care, the fragmentation of health status information, and public demand have been important factors in the development of strategies and initiatives by the government, not-for-profit organizations, and private corporations to assess the health status of populations, groups of employees, and patients with special needs.
