Health expenditure series. Geneva: World Health Organization (latest updates and more information
on countries are available at: http://apps.who.int/nha/database/DataExplorerRegime.aspx). All the
indicators refer to expenditures by financing agent except external resources which is a financing
source. WHO regional, income-group and global aggregates are calculated using absolute amounts
in national currency units converted to Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) equivalents unless otherwise
noted. For health expenditure ratios, values smaller than 0.05% may appear as zero. For per capita
indicators, when the value is less than 0.5 it is represented as < 1. In countries where the fiscal year
begins in July, expenditure data have been allocated to the later calendar year (for example, 2011
data will cover the fiscal year 201011), unless otherwise stated for the country. Absolute values of
expenditures are expressed in nominal terms (current prices).

In some cases, the sum of general government and private expenditures on health may not add up to
100% because of rounding.

Care needs to be taken in interpreting external resource figures. Most are taken from the OECD
DAC/CRS database except where a reliable full NHA study has been done. These are disbursements
to recipient countries as reported by donors, lagged one year to account for the delay between
disbursement and expenditure. Disbursement data are not available prior to 2002 and commitments
are used instead.

National currency unit per US$ are calculated using the average exchange rates for the year. WHO
regional, income-group and global aggregates are calculated using constant US$.

Purchasing power parity (PPP) international dollar (Int $) values have been revised based on the
World Bank's 2011 International Comparison Program (ICP). In countries where these values are not
available, PPPs are estimated by WHO.
