Healthcare Utilization

Healthcare Utilization assesses the frequency of visits to a doctor (e.g. a general practitioner, peadiatrician, ENT), the reasons for such visits, concrete information about the visit (e.g., name of the hospital and doctor), the frequency of hospitalization, and the use of alternative medicine. It also assesses the growth (length, weight, head circumference), referal to a doctor, and vaccinations of children in the years 2005, 2006 and 2007.
