The Healthcare Access and Quality (HAQ) Index provides a summary measure of healthcare access and quality for a
given location. This measure is based on risk-standardized mortality rates or mortality-to-incidence ratios from
causes that, in the presence of quality healthcare, should not result in death – also known as amenable mortality.

How do causes of premature death compare to those in other

locations?
This table shows the top 10 causes of premature mortality (YLLs). It can be used to compare YLLs across locations
relative to the group average. Comparison groups were chosen based on the GBD regional classifications, known
trade partnerships, and socio-demographic indicators.
