Estimated percentage of the population covered by the data source in the catchment area

Hospital del Mar is the hospital of reference for around 400,000 inhabitants in this Barcelona city area (25% of catchment area), although any patient can be visited in the hospital including patients that are coming from other healthcare settings and primary care in Barcelona province and Catalonia.

Description of the population covered by the data source in the catchment area whose data are not collected (e.g., people who are registered only for private care)

Considering the healthcare system in Spain is universal and public, the population covered includes any patient that contacts the services of the hospital both spontaneously and derived from other health care centers. The population size in the source data is more than 1.7 million and all of them are included in the standardized OMOP CDM instance version.
