• The 2011 statistical report is a combination of the report on outpatient primary health care, the report on oral health care, and the report on health centre inpatient care.
• The 2011 report draws on data retrieved from the HILMO Care
Registers for Social Welfare and Health Care and its sub-register, the Register of Primary Health Care Visits (AvoHILMO).
• The data collection on outpatient primary health care was replaced in 2011 with an online data transfer using the AvoHILMO Register and collecting data directly from patient records. THL produces up-to-date online reports on the data thus received.
