Source description

Summary: This aggregated data table contains data on the percentage (%) of population making a medical consultation, by reason according to area of residence, province, consumption quintile and sex. This data was collected in the seventh Integrated Household Living Conditions Survey, known as EICV7 (Enquête Intégrale sur les Conditions de Vie des ménages). Geographic Coverage: National coverage (Rwanda), including rural and urban households and allowing province- and district-level estimation of key indicators. Time Period: The EICV7 data collection covered a 12 month period (October 2023 to October 2024). In order to represent the seasonality in the income and consumption data, the fieldwork was divided into nine nationally representative cycles. Frequency: The EICV is conducted every three years; prior to EICV4, the survey was conducted every five years, with the first survey (EICV1) conducted in 2000/01. Population/Units: Household members Key Variables: % making medical consultation in last 4 weeks, Main reason for medical consultation Purpose: This survey serves as a key source of socio-economic data on the living conditions of Rwandan households. It plays a critical role in the ongoing monitoring and evaluation of national and international development frameworks, including the Second National Strategy for Transformation (NST2), the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and Vision 2050, among others. The survey data are also vital for compiling national accounts and updating the Consumer Price Index (CPI). Data Quality Notes: The response rate exceeded 99% by the end of the survey, with 15,054 out of the 15,066 targeted households successfully interviewed. More details can be found in the EICV7 Methodological notes report.
