They cover different kinds of health-related issues in different sides of everybody's life, including key indicators on the functioning of the health care systems. These aspects include: Public health Health status: self-reported health and morbidity, functional and activity limitations, injuries Health determinants: overweight and obesity, physical activity, dietary habits, risky behaviours such as tobacco and alcohol consumption Health care: health care expenditure, health care resources (staff and facilities) and activities (hospital and ambulatory services) Morbidity: diagnosis-specific morbidity (prevalence and incidence rates for defined diseases).
