Abstract:

The fact that countries are composed of healthy individuals is important in terms of their development levels. Therefore, efforts to improve health indicators will positively affect countries and their citizens. In this study, it is aimed to obtain the rankings of 36 OECD member countries in terms of health indicator criteria. According to the ranking results, countries will be able to see their position and review their health policies and take the necessary precautions in a timely manner. EDAS (Evaluation Based on Distance from Average Solution) and ARAS (Additive Ratio Assessment) methods were used to obtain the rankings in terms of health indicators among countries. SWARA (Step-wise Weight Assessment Ratio Analysis) method was used to determine the weights of health indicators considered as evaluation criteria. In addition, the relationship between the rankings obtained by EDAS and ARAS methods was investigated by using Spearman correlation coefficient.
