Özet:

The health indicators are used to analyze the health conditions of communities and to track improvements and deteriorations in their health conditions. The health indicators contribute to the study of the country’s health status. It is a guide in determining the health policies to be monitored in the future and in determining what developments in the health sector should be achieved. The aim of the study is to make classifications of the OECD member countries according to health indicators and to evaluate the place of Turkey in the classification, which is one of the OECD founding members. The data on health indicators are collected from the World Bank and the World Health Organization’s database. For years, the health indicators of Turkey have been compiled from the World Bank and the OECD database. In the classification of countries, aggregation analysis has been applied from many varied statistical analysis methods. There were seven works in the work. In the first group the United States, in the second group Turkey, in the third group Mexico, in the fourth group Lithuania, in the fifth group Korea and Japan, in the sixth group Colombia and in the seventh group other OECD member countries are classified. As a developing country, Turkey’s per capita health expenditure, healthy life expectancy, lifelong mother death risk, newborn death rate, number of medical doctors, number of nurses and parents, and number of beds are insufficient compared to developed countries. According to these indicators, it is clear that healing policies in Turkey should be monitored.
