“This bulletin is the eighth in the series of preliminary publications of the Canadian Sickness Survey. Family expenditures for health services were dealt with in the first four reports. The fifth report concerned the volume of sickness, the sixth permanent physical disabilities, and the seventh the incidence and prevalence of illness. Illness statistics classified by diagnostic group will be considered in bulletins to follow. The purpose of the present report is to provide estimates by age group and sex of the volume of health care received by Canadians. The major categories of health care recorded are physicians' services, hospital care, and nursing care. In addition information is presented regarding operations, dental care, examinations for glasses, and miscellaneous other health care"--Scope, p. [5].
