Approaches to measuring health inequalities are often problematic in that they use methods that are inappropriate for … categorical data. The approach here focuses on "pure" or univariate health inequality (rather than income-related or bivariate … health inequality) and is based on a concept of individual status that allows a consistent treatment of such data. We use …

The measurement of health inequalities usually involves either estimating the concentration of health outcomes using an … income-based measure of status or applying conventional inequality-measurement tools to a health variable that is non … distribution of health outcomes: this enables us to deal consistently with categorical data.
