Abstract: 

This data on health sector trends is based on the Susenas dataset of 1995-2006, which was collected by
Statistics Indonesia (BPS). These tables cover all of the important indicators of health in Indonesia including morbidity, outpatient contact rates, immunization, choice of provider, contraceptive use, healthcare expenditures, and births assisted by skilled personnel, disaggregated by the main sources of household income, consumption
quintiles, regions, urban/rural areas, sex and age groups, and education levels.
