Resumo: This project assesses the role of the population at-risk-of-poverty on population health, more specifically on health status and healthcare utilisation, as indicators of the performance of the health system in place. Time-series cross-sectional data for primarily European countries is used to investigate variation in health outcomes and health care attributable to differences in poverty and other social determinants. The study reveals health system-independent effects of social determinants on life expectancy and effects of substantial magnitude on healthy life years for particular types of health systems. Observed effects on healthcare utilisation complement identified differences among health systems.
