This is a standard classification of individual consumption expenditures patterned after the one set by the United Nations. In the 2020 PCOICOP, health (Division 06) covers: 1) medicines and health products , 2) outpatient care services, 3) inpatient care services, and 4) other health services (e.g., ambulance)).2
