Purpose: The World Health Organization has identified three main themes for countries facing critical workforce challenges in health: health workforce planning and financing; education and training and prevention and performance to progressively optimize, build and strengthen their systems. It proposes the development and strengthening of the performance of the health and care workforce as the Health Progress Model. This study was conducted to examine health system resilience and health workforce capacity at the country level within the scope of disease burdens. Methodology: In the study, capacity assessment was conducted using Data Envelopment Analysis; life expectancy at birth and burden of disease were defined as output variables, while 6 (six) occupational groups of 21 countries with regular data within the scope of health workforce were defined as input variables. Findings: The research was conducted through 4 (four) models. As a result of the analysis, the efficiency score of the countries in health services manpower capacity was determined between 0.866-0.995 and 24-52% of the countries were found to be inefficient in all models. Originality: There are no or very few evaluations with disease burdens in the literature. There is also no research using the Data Envelopment Method. The importance of this study is that burden of disease as an output variable is associated with health workforce as input variables. Burden of disease is also an important indicator of the health capacity to provide services.
