Health statistics - Statistical data for Malmö's areas
This API provides area-level health statistics for Malmö, specifically the average number of days per year that residents aged 20–64 received compensation from the Swedish Social Insurance Agency for sickness benefit, rehabilitation benefit, or sickness and activity compensation, broken down by gender. The figures are produced by Statistics Sweden using a year-end population snapshot, differing methodologically from the Swedish Social Insurance Agency's own official statistics, which use a rolling average. Data can be retrieved via Malmö's open data API by querying resources tagged with Malmö statistics descriptions, then fetching specific variables using resource identifiers through the datastore search endpoint.Average number of days a person in the area received compensation during the year from the Swedish Social Insurance Agency in the form of sickness benefit, rehabilitation benefit and sickness and activity compensation. Please note that the definition of what qualifies for compensation has changed over time, making it inappropriate to compare figures over time. Please also note that the figures differ from Sweden's official statistics produced by the Swedish Social Insurance Agency. Statistics Sweden's ill health figures (which are the ones shown here) are based on a snapshot of the number of ill health days in the past year among the population living in the area on 31/12. The Swedish Social Insurance Agency instead uses a rolling average for the year. Statistics Sweden's statistics therefore count the number of ill health days people living in an area have had during the year, regardless of where they lived when they were sick. The Swedish Social Insurance Agency's official statistics for a municipality instead count all ill health days that were registered within an area during the year, regardless of whether the people then move. Shown for the population aged 20–64. Available broken down by gender.
