Compared to other former Soviet republics and other low-income countries, the Kyrgyz Republic shows good results in term of health outcomes, access to health services, and financial protection. Life expectancy exceeds that of several of the most prosperous former Soviet republics, including Russia. Infant and under-5 mortality rates were halved between 1990 and 2010. More than 98 percent of births are attended by skilled health staff and children immunization rates exceed 90 percent. Utilization of both hospital and outpatient health services are quite equal across income groups. Overall distribution of public health spending is slightly pro-poor. The Kyrgyz health system shows low incidence of catastrophic and impoverishing out-of pocket spending for health care.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOABORTIONACCESS TO HEALTH SERVICESADOLESCENTSADULT MORTALITYADULT MORTALITY RATEALLOCATION OF RESOURCESALLOCATIVE EFFICIENCYAMBULANCEAMBULANCE SERVICECANCERCANCER PATIENTSCAPITA HEALTH SPENDINGCAPITATIONCARDIOVASCULAR DISEASESCARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEMCENTRAL BUDGETCHILD HEALTHCHRONIC DISEASECIRCULATORY SYSTEMCIRCUMCISIONCITIESCITIZENCITIZENSCLINICAL GUIDELINESCLINICSCOMMUNICABLE DISEASESCOST OF CARECOST OF TREATMENTCOST-EFFECTIVENESSCOTSDEATHSDENTAL SERVICESDIABETESDIPHTHERIADISABILITIESDISABILITYDOCTORSEMERGENCY CAREEPIDEMIOLOGICAL TRANSITIONEPILEPSYESSENTIAL DRUGSEXTERNALITIESFAMILIESFINANCIAL BARRIERSFINANCIAL PROTECTIONFOSTER FAMILIESGENERAL PRACTICEHEALTH AFFAIRSHEALTH CAREHEALTH CARE COVERAGEHEALTH CARE ORGANIZATIONSHEALTH CARE PROVIDERSHEALTH CARE REFORMSHEALTH CARE SYSTEMHEALTH CARE SYSTEMSHEALTH CARE SYSTEMS IN TRANSITIONHEALTH COVERAGEHEALTH DELIVERYHEALTH DELIVERY SYSTEMHEALTH ECONOMICSHEALTH EFFECTSHEALTH EXPENDITUREHEALTH EXPENDITURESHEALTH FACILITIESHEALTH FINANCINGHEALTH FINANCING REFORMHEALTH IMPACTSHEALTH INSURANCEHEALTH INSURANCE FUNDHEALTH ORGANIZATIONSHEALTH OUTCOMESHEALTH PLANNINGHEALTH POLICYHEALTH PROGRAMSHEALTH PROVIDERSHEALTH REFORMHEALTH REFORMSHEALTH RESOURCESHEALTH SECTORHEALTH SECTOR REFORMHEALTH SECTOR WORKERSHEALTH SERVICESHEALTH SPECIALISTHEALTH STATUSHEALTH STRATEGYHEALTH SYSTEMHEALTH SYSTEM EFFECTIVENESSHEALTH SYSTEM REFORMHEALTH SYSTEMSHEALTH SYSTEMS IN TRANSITIONHEALTH SYSTEMS STRENGTHENINGHEALTH WORKERSHEALTH WORKFORCEHIGH BLOOD PRESSUREHIVHIV INFECTIONHIV/AIDSHOSPITALHOSPITAL ADMISSIONHOSPITAL BEDSHOSPITAL CAREHOSPITAL COSTSHOSPITAL SERVICESHOSPITALIZATIONHOSPITALSHOUSEHOLD INCOMEHYGIENEHYPERTENSIONIMMUNIZATIONIMPACT ON HEALTHINCIDENCE ANALYSISINCOMEINCOME DISTRIBUTIONINCOME GROUPSINDIVIDUAL HEALTHINFANTINFANT MORTALITYINFANT MORTALITY RATESINJURIESINSURANCE COVERAGEINTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONSINTERVENTIONLABOR MARKETLIFE EXPECTANCYLIFE EXPECTANCY AT BIRTHLIMITED RESOURCESLIVE BIRTHSLOW INCOMELOW-INCOME COUNTRIESMANDATESMARKETINGMASS MEDIAMATERNAL MORTALITYMATERNAL MORTALITY RATEMEDICAL CAREMEDICAL CONDITIONSMEDICAL EDUCATIONMEDICAL EQUIPMENTMEDICAL EXAMINATIONMEDICAL PROCEDURESMEDICAL SERVICESMEDICAL STAFFMEDICAL SUPPLIESMEDICAL TECHNOLOGYMEDICINESMIGRATIONMILITARY HOSPITALSMILLENNIUM DEVELOPMENT GOALSMINISTRY OF HEALTHMODERNIZATIONMORBIDITYMORTALITYNATIONAL HEALTHNATIONAL HEALTH POLICYNATIONAL LEVELNURSESNURSINGNURSING HOMESOCCUPATIONAL DISEASEOUTPATIENT CAREPATIENTPATIENT RIGHTSPATIENTSPHARMACIESPHYSICIANPHYSICIANSPOCKET PAYMENTSPOLICY ANALYSTPOLICY GOALSPOLICY RESEARCHPOLIOPOOR FAMILIESPOPULATION GROUPSPREGNANCYPREGNANT WOMENPRIMARY CAREPRIMARY CARE PHYSICIANPRIMARY HEALTH CAREPRIMARY HEALTH CARE SERVICESPRIVATE HEALTH INSURANCEPRIVATE HOSPITALSPRIVATE SECTORPRIVATE SPENDINGPROGRESSPROVIDER PAYMENTPROVISION OF HEALTH SERVICESPROVISION OF SERVICESPUBLIC EXPENDITUREPUBLIC HEALTHPUBLIC HEALTH CAREPUBLIC HEALTH CARE SERVICESPUBLIC HEALTH EXPENDITURESPUBLIC HEALTH SERVICESPUBLIC HEALTH SPENDINGPUBLIC PROVIDERSPUBLIC PROVISIONPUBLIC SECTORPUBLIC SPENDINGQUALITY IMPROVEMENTQUALITY OF HEALTHQUALITY OF HEALTH CAREQUARANTINEREHABILITATIONREIMBURSEMENT RATESRISK FACTORRISK FACTORSSCREENINGSMOKINGSOCIAL CONDITIONSSOCIAL DEVELOPMENTSOCIAL SECURITYSOCIAL SUPPORTSPONSORSSURGERYSYPHILISTUBERCULOSISUNDER-FIVE MORTALITYUSE OF HEALTH CARE SERVICESVICTIMSWARWORKERS10.1596/19313
