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 "in-person at his/her office, in-person in my home, in-person at an after-hours clinic or walk-in clinic or in-person at the hospital emergency department" by the number of respondents who answered "in-person at his/her office, in-person in my home, in-person at an after-hours clinic or walk-in clinic, in-person at the hospital emergency department, by telephone (talking), by video (using a computer, tablet or video on your telephone) or by email, text messaging or online chat" to the question: Now think of the last time you consulted with your family doctor or your nurse practitioner, either in-person or virtually, was this consultation?
