Description
"Health Index. Ukraine" is a large-scale, empirical, and representative study aimed at collecting quantitative data on the population's health-related knowledge and behaviors, as well as their evaluations of healthcare service quality based on personal experiences.
The data for this study are derived from sociological surveys of the adult population. The initial survey was conducted in 2016 by the Kyiv International Institute of Sociology (KIIS) in collaboration with Social Indicators Center under initiative and with funding from the International Renaissance Foundation.
The survey covered topics such as health and health-seeking behavior, early disease detection, patient experiences with outpatient and inpatient care (including questions on official and unofficial expenses), ambulance and pediatric services, medication availability, satisfaction with medical care, and perceptions of healthcare reforms.
The survey sample is representative of the 18+ population of Ukraine as a whole, as well as each of the oblasts covered by the study and the city of Kyiv. Temporarily occupied territories of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea, the city of Sevastopol, and certain districts of the Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts, where government authorities temporarily do not exercise their powers, were not included in the study.
Data were collected through face-to-face interviews conducted at respondents' places of residence. In total, 10,178 respondents aged 18 and older were interviewed between May 15 and June 30, 2016.
The data is available in an SAV format (Ukrainian) and a converted CSV format (with a codebook). Field questionnaires (in Ukrainian and Russian) are also included.
The study results, including detailed analytical reports in both Ukrainian and English, as well as selected infographics, are accessible on the project website: https://healthindex.com.ua/.
