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: Are you registered with NB Health Link that gives you access to consultations with a temporary family doctor or nurse practitioner?
