Calculations

This indicator is based on respondents who do not have a family doctor or a nurse practitioner. This indicator is calculated by dividing the number of respondents who answered "yes" by the number of respondents who answered "yes or no" to the question: Thinking of the last 12 months, did you use any of the following services when you needed medical care? b) After-hours clinic or a walk-in clinic
