Definition
The indicator gives the number of periods of care during the year for those aged 75-79 who have received hospital care in primary health care per 1000 persons of same age. Population figures refer to mean population. The indicator covers hospital care in the public sector (municipalities, joint municipal boards and the state), as well as in private sector hospitals. It covers municipal health-centre wards led by general practitioners and GP-level inpatient care acquired by municipalities/joint municipal boards from elsewhere. Population proportions are calculated at THL based on the Population Statistics of Statistics Finland.
