Foreword

The preparation of the World Bank's World Development Report 1993:Investing in Health (WDR) included a substantial effort to assembleinternationally comparable statistics on a broad range of health indicators.Much of this effort invloved compiling data from existing sources; and muchof it involved substantial analytical efforts to improve the quality andcomparability of data (e.g. for trends in under-5 mortality rates and for levelsof health expenditures). Appendix A of the WDR contains the resultingstatistical tables.

This Technical Report presents an expanded and somewhat updatedversion of the WDR Appendix Tables for the countries of Latin America andthe Caribbean, Canada and the United States. While the population cut-off forinclusion in the WDR was 3 million, these tables include all countries.Country profiles have been added to the topical tables to facilitate use.Comparison with other global figures and with the developing world as awhole have been retained.

If this document proves useful, we expect to update it every few years.

Introduction

This report provides an expanded set of the World Development Report1993's data on health conditions, services and expenditures for countries in theAmericas. The data sets are based on WDR's Appendix A ("StatisticalData"), but go beyond those data in several ways: (i) the large number ofLatin America and the Caribbean (LAC) countries with populations less than 3million, which were excluded from WDR because of lack of space, wereadded; (ii) for completeness and comparison, data from Canada and the U.S.were included, and (iii) a few statistics have been revised when up-dated databecame available. The report presents the data in two separate ways -- bysubject, and by country. Part A presents the tables by subject; Part B presentsthe tables by country. Part C contains technical notes concerning methods anddata sources.

Tables by Subject

Table A. 1 is new, with basic data regarding national income anddemographics. In Tables A. 1 through A.7, all countries have been sorted andpresented in alphabetical order.

Efforts were made to include more up-to-date data in this report,whenever they became available. Updates were carried out for the followingeight statistics: GNP, GNP per capita, population, population growth rate,total fertility, life expectancy at birth, infant mortality rate, and maternalmortality rate.

Newly revised figures on health expenditure-related statistics are madeavailable, leading to an extensive update of previous statistics as well asadding more countries in Table A.6.

Additional statistics in country profile tables, not in the WDR 1993, arepresented in the Table A.7 under the heading of "Miscellaneous Indicators".

In all tables by subject, the statistics for Canada and the United Statesare included for the purpose of comparison. But they have not been includedin the computation of regional summary statistics.

Country Profiles

For those 36 countries for which per capita GNP is available, countryprofile tables have been constructed to give a snapshot of health conditions.For comparison, each of these profiles also contains the summary statistics forthe LAC Region, countries in similar income groups, and the world.

Technical Notes

The following notes are drawn from the Appendix A of WDR 1993.

Tables A. 1 presents basic data on population and GNP. Tables A.2through A.7 provide population and health data as a supplement to the maintext and to the data presented in the World Development Indicators.Economies are listed in an alphabetical order, and the names of those countriesfor which GNP per capita is uncertain are italicized.

Although the data reported here are drawn from the most authoritativesources available, comparability is limited because of variation in datacollection, statistical methods, and definitions. Differences in the reliability ofthe data are indicated by presenting less accurate figures in italics.

Table A.2 Population structure and dynanmics

Population in 1990 by country and the percentages for under age 15and for age 60 and over were taken from Bos and others 1992. Regional totalswere obtained by addition. The regional population totals provide the basis forthe regional projections carried out for this Report for the period 1950 to2050. The basis for the mortality assumption for the projection for LatinAmerica and the Caribbean 1990 was deaths and population by age asavailable in the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) data base for1990. Fertility estimates for the period 1950 to 1990 were determined by the1990 age distributions and the mortality assumptions. Fertility estimates for theperiod 1990 to 2050 were taken as weighted averages of the country-specificvalues used by Bos and others 1992. Estimates of migration were obtainedindirectly from United Nations, World Population Prospects 1990. Regionalsummaries for various columns of Table A.2---total fertility rate, total livebirths, life expectancy, median age at death, child mortality rate, and adultmortality rate by sex---are taken directly from the regional projections.

Country-specific values for total fertility rate and total live births in1990 are taken from projection data bases in Bos and others 1992. Mortalityindicators are based on the child mortality estimates for 1960, 1975, and 1990,which, for developing countries, are largely based on the special exercisedescribed below.

Life expectancy at birth. e(0), is the number of years that a person bornin a given year could expect to live, given the age-specific mortality rates forthat year. Life expectancy in 1960 and 1990 and male and female adult

- 54 -

mortality rates for 1990 were derived from the child mortality estimates forthat year, combined with assumptions about the relationship between child andadult mortality based on the country-specific projections in Bos and others1992. The adult mortality rate for a given sex is the probability of dyingbetween ages 15 and 60, expressed per 1,000. Median age at death is the agebelow which half of all deaths occur in a year.

The perinatal mortality rate is the number of perinatal deaths (late fetaldeaths, occurring at twenty-eight weeks of gestation or thereafter, and earlyneonatal deaths, occurring within the first seven days of life) per 1,000 births.Estimates of perinatal mortality were derived from various data sources. Vitalregistration data were used for Argentina, Chile, and Uruguay. The remainingestimates drew on community- and hospital-based studies at the district orother subnational level that were expanded to the national level using eitherpercentage of the population living in urban areas in 1990 or percentage ofbirths attended by trained health staff.

The child mortality rate is defined as the probability of dying by exactage 5. Estimates for the period 1960 to 1990 were obtained from a specialexercise carried out jointly for the World Development Report and the UnitedNations Children's Fund (UNICEF), the results of which will be published asUNICEF, The Progress of Nations 1993. The sources of information are thosegiven in United Nations, Child Mortality since the 1960s (1992), augmentedby recently available census and survey data. For each observation of childmortality, there is a corresponding observation of the date to which themeasure refers. Point estimates of child mortality were obtained by fitting aline to the observations using weighted least squares, the independent variablesbeing years (to account for trends) and the weights being based on consensusjudgment about the relative robustness of estimates derived from differenttypes of data. In order to focus on rates of change, the dependent variable usedis the logarithm of the observed child mortality rates. For estimates beyond therange of the observations, extrapolation is used; all estimates based onextrapolation are shown in italics. For countries not included in ChildMortality since the 1960s,. estimates of child mortality by period have beentaken from United Nations, Mortality of Children under Age Five (1988).Estimates for calendar years have been obtained by averaging estimates foradjacent five-year periods.

Table A.3 Nutrition and health behavior

Stunting is defined as low height-for-age; data are for children ages 24--59 months. Wasting is defined as low weight-for-height; data are for childrenages 12--23 months. Moderate to severe stunting or wasting means,respectively, height-for-age or weight-for-height more than 2 standarddeviations below the median of the National Center for Health Statistics

(NCHS) reference population. What matters is the excess over the prevalencein the reference population; the latter includes genetic effects as well asmalnutrition. Stunting is interpreted as measuring chronic malnutrition andwasting as measuring acute or short-term malnutrition, whether the cause isinadequate food intake or infectious disease or both. Mild or moderatemalnutrition is not considered disease, but all degrees of malnutrition increasethe risk of death in children. Exclusively breastfed babies include those whoregularly received only breast milk before age 4 months. Women are classifiedas anemic when the blood hemoglobin level is below the WHO norm of 110grams per liter.

Tobacco consumption per year is an estimate of kilograms ofconsumption of dry-weight tobacco per adult (age 15 and older). Whereconsumption in raw-leaf equivalent is not available, data are derived byconverting data on consumption or sales of products. In some casesconsumption is calculated from production of and net trade in leaf andproducts. Consumption of tobacco for 1990 and 2000 was projected through amodel that used assumptions on the growth of private consumption expenditureto derive per capita demand for tobacco. The demand functions and elasticitieswere based on analysis of recent national family budget surveys and past timeseries of consumption. Antismoking campaigns and other preventive activitiesthat have influenced the level of tobacco consumption were considered forsome countries through a trend factor, independent of income and price.

Sources for data on child nutrition are World Health Organization(WHO), Demographic and Health Surveys, Institute for Resource Developmentof Macro Systems (IRD), and UNICEF; for anemia, WHO; and for tobaccoconsumption, the Commodities and Trade Division of the Food andAgriculture Organization of the United Nations (1990).

Table A.4 Mortality by broad cause, and incidence of tuberculosis

Mortality rates are standardized for age by the direct method, usingworld population as the standard population. Infectious diseases andreproductive health problems include all deaths from infectious diseases listedin the Ninth Edition International Classification of Diseases (1977), plusinfluenza and pneumonia, nutritional disorders and anemia, maternal causes ofdeath (including abortion), and perinatal causes of death. Injuries include allviolent causes, whether intentional, unintentional, or unknown.Noncommunicable diseases include all other causes of death. Deaths of whichthe cause was coded as ill-defined are distributed among the three groups inproportion to the number of deaths in each group. The source is WHO dataderived from national vital statistics. Estimates for economies with incompletedeath registration (less than 90 percent of deaths), high levels of nonmedicalcertification of causes of death (more than 15 percent), or high proportions of

- 56 -

deaths from ill-defined causes (more than 20 percent) are considered unreliableand are shown in italics.

The incidence rate of tuberculosis has been estimated using the mostrecent available information recorded by governments and corrected for manydeveloping countries with additional information from epidemiological studies.The data source is WHO's Tuberculosis Programme.

Table A.5 Health infrastructure and services

Doctor is defined to include only individuals with the professionaldegree of medical doctor. The definition of nurse includes only registerednurses and registered midwives. Hospital bed is defined as beds in clinics andhospitals; beds in long-term care facilities and nursing homes are excluded.Data sources are the World Bank, the Organization for Economic Cooperationand Development (OECD), PAHO, and WHO.

Immunization data refer to DPT3---three completed doses of vaccineagainst diphtheria, pertussis (whooping cough), and tetanus---and to measles.The denominator for estimating coverage is the number of surviving infantsage 1 year. The source of data is WHO's Expanded Programme onImmunization.

Table A.6 Health expenditure and total flows from external assistance

Health expenditure includes outlays for prevention, promotion,rehabilitation, and care; population activities; nutrition activities; program foodaid; and emergency aid specifically for health. It does not include water andsanitation. Per capita expenditures and per capita aid flows are based on WorldBank midyear population estimates.

Total health expenditure is expressed in official exchange rate U.S.dollars. Information on government health expenditures is from nationalsources, supplemented by Government Finance Statistics (published by theInternational Monetary Fund), World Bank sector studies, and other studies.Data on parastatal expenditures (for health-related social security and socialinsurance programs) are from the Social Security Division of the InternationalLabour Organisation (ILO) and the World Bank. Data are drawn from abackground paper to this Report by the Harvard Center for Population andDevelopment Studies.

Public sector expenditures include government health expenditures,parastatal expenditures, and foreign aid, making the figures comparable withthose for OECD countries. Private sector financing data for countries otherthan OECD members are based on household surveys carried out by the ILO

Page 65: World Bank Documentdocuments.worldbank.org/curated/en/783141468778818974/pdf/multi0page.pdf · World Bank. Jose-Luis Bobadilla is a senior health specialist in the Population, Health,

and other sources, supplemented by information from United Nations NationalIncome Accounts, World Bank studies, and other studies published in thescientific literature.

Estimates for countries with incomplete data were calculated in threesteps. First, where data on either private or public expenditures were lacking,the missing figures were imputed from data from countries for whichinformation was available. The imputation followed regressions relating publicor private expenditure to GDP per capita. Second, for a country with no healthexpenditure data, it was assumed that the share of GDP spent on health wasthe same as the average for the corresponding demographic region. Third, ifGDP was also unknown but population was known, it was assumed that percapita health spending was the same as the regional average. The two regionalaverage imputations covered forty-seven countries but added only $10 billionto estimated global spending.

Estimates for development assistance for health are expressed in officialexchange rate U.S. dollars. Total aid flows represent the sum of all healthassistance for health to each country by bilateral and multilateral agencies andby international nongovernmental organizations (NGOs). Direct bilateralofficial development assistance (ODA) comes from the OECD countries.Sources of multilateral development assistance include United Nationsagencies, development banks (including the World Bank), the EuropeanCommunity, and the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC).Major international NGOs include the International Committee for the RedCross (ICRC) and the International Planned Parenthood Federation (IPPF).National NGOs were not included because the available information was notseparated by recipient country.

Information on ODA from bilateral and multilateral organizations wascompleted by data from the OECD's Development Assistance Committee(DAC) and Creditor Reporting System (CRS) and from the AdvisoryCommittee for the Coordination of Information Systems (ACCIS). DAC hascompiled annual aggregate ODA statistics, by sector, since 1960. The OECD'sCRS, established in 1970, complements the DAC statistics by identifyingcontributions allocated by sector. The CRS database is the most completesource of information for bilateral ODA, but its completeness varies amongOECD countries and from year to year. ACCIS has kept, since 1987, aRegister of Development Activities of the United Nations that lists sources offunds and executing agencies for all United Nations projects by sector.

The estimates of development assistance in this table were prepared bythe Harvard Center for Population and Development Studies as a backgroundpaper for this Report.
