Number of people pushed below the $2.15 ($ 2017 PPP) poverty line by out-of-pocket health care expenditure — every country, all years (World Bank)

Number of people pushed below the $2.15 ($ 2017 PPP) poverty line by out-of-pocket health care expenditure. This indicator shows the number of people living in households experiencing impoverishing out-of-pocket health expenditures, defined as expenditures without which the household they live in would have been above the $2.15 poverty line, but because of the expenditures is below the poverty line. Out-of-pocket health expenditure is defined as any spending incurred by a household when any member uses a health good or service to receive any type of care (preventive, curative, rehabilitative, long-term or palliative care); provided by any type of provider; for any type of disease, illness or health condition; in any type of setting (outpatient, inpatient, at home). Every country, region and year the World Bank publishes for indicator SH.UHC.NOP1.TO (Universal Health Coverage), delivered as a tidy table — country, ISO code, year and value — ready for analysis in Excel, R, Python or the Intigal AI workspace.
