Health metrics refer to the measurement and evaluation of various health-related indicators or outcomes, such as disease prevalence, mortality rates, life expectancy, healthcare utilization, and quality of life. These metrics enable researchers, policymakers, and healthcare professionals to assess the health status of populations, track trends over time, monitor the effectiveness of interventions or programs, and make informed decisions to improve healthcare delivery and public health outcomes. Health metrics play a critical role in guiding health policies, resource allocation, and interventions aimed at promoting health and preventing diseases.
