The report contains a Chartbook that assesses the Nation's health by presenting trends and current information on selected measures of morbidity, mortality, health care utilization, health risk factors, prevention, health insurance, and personal health care expenditures. This year's Chartbook includes a special feature on death and dying. The report also contains 148 trend tables organized around four major subject areas: health status and determinants, health care utilization, health care resources, and health care expenditures.-- preface.
