Calculations

This indicator is based on respondents who have a family doctor or a nurse practitioner and who consulted with them in the last 12 months. 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 because your family doctor or your nurse practitioner was not available when you needed medical care? b) After-hours clinic or walk-in clinic
