Evaluation of Health Care Standards as a Component of Quality of Life - Jan. 31, 2023

Our evaluation focuses on assessing healthcare standards as a crucial component of quality of life. By analyzing factors such as access to medical facilities, quality of healthcare services, and healthcare costs, we provide insights into the healthcare landscape of specific areas.

According to the Quality of Life Index in January 2021, Taipei, Liverpool, and Chiang Mai were ranked as the top three cities with the highest healthcare standards. These cities received index scores of 87.3, 85.7, and 84.8, respectively. These high scores indicate excellent access to medical facilities, quality healthcare services, and comparatively manageable healthcare costs.

On the other hand, Baku, Dhaka, and Caracas received lower scores on the healthcare index in January 2021. These cities faced challenges in terms of access to medical facilities, quality of healthcare services, and higher healthcare costs, which can impact the overall quality of life in these areas.

In January 2022 and January 2023, Taipei consistently maintained its position as the city with the highest healthcare standards. Liverpool and Chiang Mai also remained among the top-ranked cities, showcasing their commitment to quality healthcare.

During the same periods, cities such as Baku, Dhaka, and Caracas continued to face challenges in their healthcare standards, with relatively lower scores on the index. These cities exhibited limited access to medical facilities, lower quality healthcare services, and higher healthcare costs, affecting the overall quality of life for residents.

In January 2023, Seoul emerged as one of the top cities with high healthcare standards, securing the third position. Casablanca, Dhaka, and Caracas still faced challenges in providing optimal healthcare to their residents.

Our evaluation of healthcare standards as a component of quality of life helps you gain insights into the healthcare landscape of different areas.
