For Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people:
How do they perceive their health?
What kind of health conditions are most prevalent?
Are people using health services more?
Results of the Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health Survey 2012-2013. Sample Size = 7,700 Households, 12,300 people.
In 2012-13, 45% of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people were living with 3 or more long-term health conditions. The comparable non-Indigenous rate was 39%.
