HP Provider classification SHA2: Objectives Three main objectives present a complete classification of all health care providers to structure the health care providers by their main characteristics, and to show the related structure of economic units, which support the processes and development of health care delivery (HP*.7)

Providers SHA2.0: Questions (1) Do you agree to form the special class of households at the 1 st digit (HP*.5)? to combine hospitals and nursing care facilities into HP*.1? to combine offices of other health practitioners and providers of home health care services? to separate providers of patient transportation at the 1 st digit (HP*.4)?
Providers SHA2.0: Questions (2) Do you agree to integrate Provision of public health programmes (HP.5) into HP*.6 Providers of health administration and financing to separate HP*.2.6 Providers of preventive care to structure HP*.7 Other industries (rest of the economy) to make it more detailed? to classify distributors of medical goods (e.g. supermarkets) under HP*.7.9 Others instead of HP*.4.9 Other retailers of medical goods?
