- Summary
- This report is an update to the OECD Health Working Paper No. 22, Health Care Quality Indicators Project: Initial Indicators Report that was based on data collected between 2003 and 2005 and released in 2006.

It identified 17 of these indicators as being fit for international comparisons of which 4 were identified as needing further work.
