The dataset integrates publicly available indicators from the <b>World Development Indicators (WDI), Worldwide Governance Indicators (WGI), WHO/World Bank UHC series, and related health-expenditure databases</b>.</p><p dir="ltr">The repository includes variables on health expenditure, physicians, nurses and midwives, hospital beds, universal health coverage, health financing, institutional quality, socioeconomic conditions, and population health outcomes. It also contains materials used for <b>variable-returns-to-scale Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA), bootstrap bias correction, truncated-bootstrap regression, fixed-effects estimation, PCA governance robustness, sensitivity analysis, matched-year comparisons, and stochastic frontier analysis</b>. The materials are provided to facilitate transparency, verification, and reproducibility of the study’s empirical results.</p> 2026-09-14T12:30:44Z Dataset Dataset 10.6084/m9.figshare.33735043.v1 https://figshare.com/articles/dataset/_p_dir_ltr_Closing_the_Universal_Health_Coverage_Gap_through_Efficiency_A_Bias-Corrected_Bootstrap_DEA_Analysis_of_Health-System_Performance_in_Sub-Saharan_Africa_p_/33735043 CC BY 4.0
