National Health Survey
A National Health Survey is a comprehensive study conducted by a government or health organization to gather information about the health status, behaviors, and healthcare usage of a country's population. It collects data on conditions like chronic diseases, mental health, and lifestyle factors, helping policymakers understand health trends. This information guides decisions on healthcare services, resource allocation, and public health initiatives. The survey typically involves questionnaires, interviews, or physical examinations and aims to improve overall health outcomes by identifying needs and monitoring progress over time.
