['Public health status and perspectives' 1997. III. Health inequalities in the Netherlands].
The theme report 'Health inequalities' of the Dutch 'Public health status and forecasts' 1997 indicates that there are substantial health inequalities between population groups in the Netherlands, most notably with respect to socioeconomic status, but also in respect to other sociodemographic characteristics. It is expected that the numbers of people in several of these disadvantaged groups will increase. Improving the health status of disadvantaged groups can therefore theoretically produce great health gains.
