Slovenia: UHC service coverage sub-index on service capacity and access

Key figures

What the numbers say

In 2023, Slovenia's UHC service coverage sub-index on service capacity and access did not change 0 on 2022 (from 93 to 93).

Across the 22 yearly changes before that (2001 to 2022), the average change was +0.18 and a typical year strayed about 1.65 from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 0.1 standard deviations below that average, so it was an ordinary year: it sits within the range of normal year-to-year movement.

On record, the biggest yearly rise was 3 in 2014 and the biggest yearly fall was 4 in 2012. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.

From 2014 to 2023 the straight-line trend is upward, about 0.46 a year. A straight line explains 44% of the movement over 10 observed years.
