“Self-reported unmet needs for medical examinations from the Eurostat Health database are shown in table 15. The group with unmet needs for medical examinations is significantly larger for people with disabilities, and especially with severe disabilities. The figures for Denmark are significantly lower than the EU27 average, but for the group with severe disability the Danish figure is still above 4%.”
