"n/a" Used when the information accessed indicates that a cell should have an entry but no estimates could be made.
"0" Used when no evidence of the schemes to which the cell relates exist. Some estimates yielding a ratio below 0.04% are also shown as ‘0’.
Footnotes
A new basis for these estimates was provided by new NHA reports, surveys, National Accounts series, accessed information and/or country consultations. Fiscal year starts in October and expenditure data have been allocated to the later calendar year (i.e. 2007 data cover the fiscal year 2006-07).
Last updated: June 2013

All the indicators refer to expenditures by financing agent except external resources which is a financing source.
When the number is smaller than 0.05% the percentage may appear as zero. For per capita expenditure indicators, when the value is less than 0.5 it is represented as <1.
In countries where the fiscal year begins in July, expenditure data have been allocated to the later calendar year (for example, 2008 data will cover the fiscal year 2007–08), unless otherwise stated for the country.
Absolute values of expenditures are expressed in nominal terms (current prices).
National currency unit per US$ are calculated using the average exchange rates for the year. For 2008, 2009 the use of yearly average exchange rates (compared to year-end exchange rates) may not fully represent the impact of the global financial crisis.
In some cases, the sum of general government and private expenditures on health may not add up to 100% because of rounding.
National currency unit per US$ are calculated using the average exchange rates for the year. For 2008, 2009 the use of yearly average exchange rates (compared to year-end exchange rates) may not fully represent the impact of the global financial crisis.
PPP series resulting from the 2005 International comparison project (ICP) estimated by the World Bank has been used. In countries where this is not available, PPPs are estimated by the WHO.
Care needs to be taken in interpreting external resource figures. Most are taken from the OECD DAC/CRS database except where a reliable full national health account study has been done. They are disbursements to recipient countries as reported by donors, lagged one year to account for the delay between disbursement and expenditure. Before 2002, disbursement data is not available and commitments are used.
