How to read the data
Latest available data
The page automatically displays the most recent Eurostat observation available for each indicator. The reference year can therefore differ between indicators.
Physicians
Practising physicians are preferred. Where necessary, professionally active or licensed physicians are used. The EU-27 figure is population-weighted when a direct Eurostat EU aggregate is unavailable.
Automatic updates
Data are retrieved through the eEuropa data service. When Eurostat releases newer observations, the page updates without requiring manual changes to the figures.
