Data collected by the CDHS 2000 on the utilization of health services by the Cambodian population can be used to assess the Ministry of Health’s Health Coverage Plan. • It can be used to provide a first-round analysis of health care delivery under the new plan.

Health expenditures (in US $) by household members ill or injured in the past 30 days
Main Findings • Although accidental death or injury is low, a majority of those are due to car accidents, followed by falls from height. • Illnesses, birth and land mines/guns are the most common reasons for impairment, but they vary greatly by age. • When household members were ill or injured in the past 30 days, they sought their 1st treatment mostly from a private or a non-medical source, rather than a public source.
When ill or injured, the population rarely seeks a 2nd or a 3rd treatment, but when they do, they again prefer to go to the private or non-medical sector. • The private, and most notably the non-medical sector, are much less expensive than the public sector in terms of health care and transportation costs. • The source of money spent to pay health care is mostly from savings or from wages and/or pocket money.
