Notes 65

4. Using the Slovak HSPA framework: Case study on equity 66

4.1. Equity in geographic distribution of health variables: preventive and outpatient healthcare 68

4.1.1. Variation in regional distribution of healthcare workforce implies differences in access to first-contact and specialist care 68

4.1.2. Provider network adequacy and unmet needs indicators can pinpoint geographic access gaps 68

4.1.3. Indicators on preventive care utilisation can reveal where access constraints may be suppressing uptake 70

4.1.4. Consultation rates can signal differences in early access and service efficiency 71

4.1.5. Outcome indicators can support a geographically sensitive lens on whether gaps persist in health status and mortality 72

4.2. Equity by demographic characteristics: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) 74

4.2.1. Differences in behavioural determinants are key to understand cardiovascular disease inequalities 74

4.2.2. For people at risk of or with cardiovascular disease, healthcare availability is valuable to support self-management 75

4.2.3. Healthcare services can be delivered or received differently by population groups 76

4.2.4. Cardiovascular disease outcomes often differ by gender 77

4.3. Equity by socio-economic status: Health status differences 79

4.3.1. Health status is impacted by health literacy, in turn affecting risk factors and engagement in prevention programmes 79

4.3.2. Disadvantaged socio-economic groups often experience barriers to healthcare access or may receive care that is of lower quality or less people centred 81

4.3.3. Outcomes area includes indicators that reflect socio-economic differences in health status 82

4.4. Understanding equity in health system performance through the Slovak HSPA framework 84
