Measuring the gap in health expenditure: Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians | 6.14 MB |
Equity Economics, in partnership with the National Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Organisation (NACCHO), undertook this analysis of the gap in health expenditure for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. In order to calculate the gap, they accounted for the burden of disease, which is more than twice the rate for the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population than for the non-Indigenous population.
