About this ranking

Coverage of essential health services on a scale of 0 to 100 (SDG indicator 3.8.1): the geometric mean of 14 tracer indicators on reproductive, maternal, newborn and child health, infectious diseases, noncommunicable diseases, and service capacity and access. Published by WHO.

Some tracer indicators are proxies rather than direct measures of coverage, and WHO recalculates past years when methods change. WHO revises these series, past years included, when new national reports or estimates come in, so values can change between retrievals.

Every value in the ranking comes from the same publisher and the same period, so the countries are compared on one definition. Equal values share a rank.
