This is a map of Serbia by districts (NUTS3 level) showing the total number of gynecologists per 100,000 female population over 15 years old in 2020, colour coded from light purple (from less than 20) to dark purple (to over 40).

This indicator shows the physical availability of gynecologists to the population in the specific district, as one of potential indicators of medical desertification, and might become part of the index for medical desertification which will be formulated throughout research activities, between October 2021 and May 2022.

The districts with the lowest number of gynecologists per 100,000 female population over 15 years old are Raški, Zapadnobački, Sremski, Severnobački, Zaječarski, and Južnobanatski. The number of gynecologists per 100,000 female population over 15 years old in these districts ranges from 17 to 26.

Eventually, a mouse-over or clicking on a district will also present additional information about that district, such as the size of the population, it’s demographic composition or the percentage of unmet health needs. Also, information from our in-country research will be included as we go along.
