Risk of impoverishing expenditure for surgical care (% of people at risk) — every country, all years (World Bank)
The proportion of population at risk of impoverishing expenditure when surgical care is required. Impoverishing expenditure is defined as direct out of pocket payments for surgical and anaesthesia care which drive people below a poverty threshold (using a threshold of $2.15 PPP/day). Every country, region and year the World Bank publishes for indicator SH.SGR.IRSK.ZS (World Development Indicators), delivered as a tidy table — country, ISO code, year and value — ready for analysis in Excel, R, Python or the Intigal AI workspace.
