Keywords: aggregation consistency; geometric mean; health indicators; health index; priority setting; public health surveillance
Aims: Setting priorities in public health involves selection of indicators, domains and method of aggregation to get an index of health. Priority setting for universal health coverage needs methodologically sound method of aggregation of chosen indicators satisfying desirable properties.
Methods: Avoiding problems of scaling, selection of weights and distributions of indicator scores, multiplicative aggregation of ratios of n-indicators in t-th year and a fixed base year is suggested satisfying country index = aggregation of index of all regions = aggregation of index of all domains.
Results: The index can be computed separately for different vulnerable groups or on place of dwelling. Priorities can be decided by relative importance of the indicators computed by change in index due to unit increase in an indicator. The proposed index help in ranking of regions, identification of critical indicators, assessing progress/decline reflecting effectiveness of public health policies and programmes, drawing path of progress/decline of the index across time.
Conclusions: Proposed method of aggregation irrespective of inter-correlations among the indicators, offering benefits of aggregation consistency has clear theoretical advantages and is recommended.
A healthy population enjoying good physical, mental, and social well-being signifies socio-economic capital of a nation which helps to achieve higher socio-economic development, while reducing the burden on healthcare systems. Health of population in a country considers health outcome metrics reflecting physical, mental, and social well-being of people with positive and negative states of health like life expectancy at birth or condition-specific life expectancy, mortality rate, age-specific mortality rates, etc. and patient-reported measure of health and functional status (Parrish, 2010). India is committed to accelerate progress in the SDGs, including SDG-3 targets relating to good health and well-being for all. Setting priorities in public health at national level to improve health of population needs to address the basic questions on satisfaction of variety of compelling needs, assessment of size of public health problems, important problem areas, how much to care about and for whom, how to achieve health equity by eliminating health disparities, how to attain health literacy to improve the health and well-being of all, etc. Implementation of the policies involve number of players at various levels like local, state and district, national level, associated industry, health care providers and professionals, the public at large and may run into rough weather due to anticipated and unanticipated factors. Strong Public Health Surveillance (PHS) systems are pre-requisites for implementation of Public Health policy. Implementation challenges in India have been addressed in details in Vision 2035: Public Health Surveillance in India (Blanchard et al.2020).Appropriate health-policies and programmes need to focus on demographic changes, current and anticipated phases of epidemiological transition, disease burden across the regions or states, vulnerable groups, causes of deaths, etc. which are usually evaluated by secondary data on a number of dimensions, each containing a set of measurable indicators. Questions may arise on adequacy of data. For example, in India, medically certified deaths constituted about 21% of registered deaths in 2019 (RGI, 2021). Addressing data gaps in public health could be given priority. Deciding priorities for public health involves management of public health information unlike clinical information which are mostly concern with assessment of severity of disease, individual patient care and measuring changes with time. Aggregated clinical data may not be sufficient to indicate impact of health policies in the population of a country. Thus, approach to population health includes collection of data pertaining to selected indicators distributed among finite number of chosen domains and appropropriate method of aggregation of the indicators and/or domains to get an index of health. Comprehensive selection of indicators and the adopted aggregation method determine effectiveness in detecting problems, defining priorities, identifying innovative solutions, and allocating resources for improved health outcomes. The set of indicators includes among others social determinants of health, education, environment, lifestyle factors, etc. and data-driven approach for assessment, monitoring, intervening and collaborating across various sectors like healthcare, government, community organizations, private sector to improve overall health of a population. Many health indices have been developed. While Van de Water et al (1996) considered a set of indices pertaining to European Union member states; Hyder et al. (2012) listed indices originating from the World Bank and WHO. However, a health index for developed countries may not be applicable for developing countries like India with pronounced poverty, inequality and inadequate access to healthcare infrastructure and services, etc. (Goli & Arokiasamy, 2014). In addition, disease-related stigma causing inequality in the access and delivery of health-care services can affect public health differently in different societies. Stigma and resulting discrimination towards corpses and survivors of Coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) was common even among educated persons (Dar et. al. 2020). Disease-related stigma were also found on mental illnesses, AIDS, leprosy, cancer, autism, Down’s syndrome, diabetes, obesity, intestinal disorders, epilepsy, etc. (Akbari et al. 2023). Because of lack of theoretical backgrounds, or framework in construction of health indices, Ashraf etal. (2019) suggested for development of health index with focused purposes for a specific population. However, there is no consensus regarding selection of domains and indicators for comprehensive approach of muldimensional index of public health. For example, Health Index by NITI Aayog (2021), Government of India covers 24 indicators (positive indicators like institutional deliveries and negative indicators like Neonatal Mortality Rate (NMR), Under-five Mortality Rate (U5MR), human resource shortfall, etc.). The India Health Index (IHI) by Sehgal et al. (2024) considers six domains with 29 indicators. In general, each chosen indicator is made unit free by normalizing or scaling by different transformations like max-min normalization (Yang, 2014), Z-score standardization (WHO index of health system performance by SPRG, 2001), converting raw scores of indicators into a 1- 100 scales (Mazziotta-Pareto Index (MPI) (2013), etc. and such normalized scores are aggregated by arithmetic aggregation with or without weights. However, different methods of normalizations have methodological limitations. Mhlanga and Lall (2022) found that different normalizing or scaling transformation produced different rankings. Multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methods usually avoid normalization. Aggregation by giving equal weights to the indicators and dimensions is rather controversial, since equal weighting implying equal importance resulting in constant trade-off between a pair of indicators are not always made explicit (Tofallis, 2014; Yang, 2014). SF-36, transforms raw data to percentages before taking average. However, average of percentages is wrong, when the denominator
. Weights based on Principal Component Analysis (PCA) ignore poorly correlated indictors with the composite index (CI) even if such indicators are important. For covariance matrix, PCA gives more weight to variables with larger variances. PCA weights are data specific and may vary across time. PCA method was disfavoured by (Nardo et al.2005). Ideal weights mentioned by Hartung et al. (2008) are utopia. Chakrabartty (2017) suggested weights minimizing variance of the weighted sum Y=
where replacing 
by corresponding standardized scores 
, resulted equal correlation between Y and each 
1, 2, ….., n. However, determination of methodologically sound weights for computation of CI as weighted sum is difficult since no weighting system is beyond criticism (Greco, et al.2019). Comparison of health-status measures by Essink-Bot et al. (1987) found that none of the tools NHP, SF-36, COOP/WONCA charts, EQ-5D-5L performed uniformly as "best" or "worst. Both IHI and Health Index by NITI Aayog suffer from methodological limitations in terms of transformations used for scaling or normalization, methods of finding weights and aggregation methods without ensuring aggregation consistency. One of the major issues in health index of public health at a given year (
is meaningful aggregation of healthrelated dimensions and constituent indicators facilitating better comparisons, tracking changes over time, identification of critical areas for taking corrective action (policy intervention) and monitoring health trends. Aggregation method to arrive at the index to satisfy desirable properties including aggregation of 
over all sub-groups (like regions, genders, age/income categories, urban & rural, etc.). Translation invariance requires that the index remains the same regardless of the spatial position i.e. numerical descriptors are shifted but not altered. Avoiding scaling, selection of weights and distributions of indicator scores, multiplicative aggregation of ratios of n-indicators in the t-th year and a fixed base year as 
= 
is suggested satisfying translation invariance and aggregation consistency i.e. the index for the country = aggregation of index of all regions = aggregation of index of all domains = product of index formed for each indicator. Priorities can be decided by relative importance of the indicators computed by change in the index due to unit increase in an indicator. Properties satisfied by the index and associated benefits are discussed.
Literature survey:
A chosen indicator varies across regions of a country indicating health disparities (Fineberg, 2025).“Burden of Disease” could be a chosen domain or a chosen indicator reflecting mortality (such as heart disease, cancer, stroke, etc.) and also burdens in terms of disability (such as low back pain, dementia, mental depression, substance use disorder). Health Adjusted Life Expectancy (HALE), Disability Adjusted Life Year (DALY), Quality adjusted life year (QALY), etc. requiring medical interventions merit inclusion. Burden of injuries is a neglected area since injuries are reported as accidents or crime obtained from police records which are often under-reported and may not help to adopt strategy for prevention of injury and prevent lives and disability (Dandona et al. 2017). Similarly, institutional capacities may be extended to strengthening local health departments, core health agencies, rebuilding the public health workforce, pandemic preparedness and incorporating tools of contemporary data science into public health and pursuing strategic health research agenda (Fineberg, 2025). Data driven processes in setting priorities was suggested by Baltussen et al. (2016). Predictive, responsive, integrated, and tiered public health system (PHS) based on individual-levels information of patients were emphasized in Vision 2035: Public Health Surveillance in India (Blanchard et al.2020). Such PHS can better reflect qualities of health care services and other sources along with rationalized referral networks and improved laboratory capacity. Assessment of performance of players of public health interventions and their co-ordinations at local, state, and government levels require different set of indicators. Health care expenditure as percentage of GDP is an obvious choice of indicator, but views expressed against “Dollar for Health”. For example, life expectancy at birth for US is less than the average of the same for OECD countries despite spending 18% of GDP by US on medical care and hospital services (NRC and IOM, 2013). Higher expenditures in social services associated with public health have positive influence in health outcomes (Bradley et al., 2016). Setting public health priorities need longer horizon to cover among others demographical changes. For example, increasing share of elderly population having less income and constant or increased consumption with multimorbidity, impairments, disability, psycho-social problems is a major public health concerns at global level and is likely to increase in future periods. Thus, elderly population is a vulnerable group for which separate set of priorities may be required. Domains of Health Index 2021 assigned equal weights to indicators in a domain such that weights are proportional to their importance with the health impacts. Details are shown in Table 1.

and 
and value of the Index may not be comparable with previous choices of the years.The India Health Index (IHI) used logarithmic of value of each indicator and were standardized to have zero mean and unit standard deviation (SD) and combined as weighted sum where weights were obtained by Principal Component Analysis (PCA) (Sehgal et al. 2024). IHI was computed at the district level. Reliability and validity of IHI were obtained respectively by Cronbach alpha and correlation with U5MR from National Family Health Survey (NFHS-5) (0.74) and Subnational Human Development Index (SHDI) (0.87). The SHDI is a version of the Human Development Index (HDI) with a broader indicator of overall quality of life. Major criticisms against IHI based on cross-sectional data are:

but 
< 
(Kovacevic, 2011). Moreover, logarithmic transformation fails to satisfy desired properties like translation invariance and consistency in aggregation (Chakravarty, 2003). The scaling methods used in IHI and Health Index 2021 have advantages and disadvantages.
Different methods of normalization can change differently distributions of scaled scores and affect the final index. It is better to construct multidimensional index avoiding
scaling/normalization and weights. Ordinal scores fail to satisfy equidistant property due to unknown distance between levels (Rutter and Brown, 2017) leading to non- meaningful addition or subtraction of item/dimension scores (Jamieson, 2004). Meaningful

For a given country or region and a given year, let

in the base year pertaining to public health where high value of each indicator implies better public health. The indicators with varying degree of inter-correlations could be in different units or expressed as percentages, ratios, counts, in ratio or ordinal scales, or even biomarkers indicating responses to a specific intervention. The unit-free multidimensional index 
is suggested to be obtained as

and public health priorities of the country can be decided accordingly. Similarly, priorities for a region can be decided by

and to test equality of mean of two GMs by t-tests based on logarithms of the observations.Major limitations of arithmetic aggregation of indicators in different units are avoided by the proposed index generating continuous, monotonic scores satisfying desired properties including country index = aggregation of index of all regions = aggregation of index of all domains = product of index formed for each indicator. Thus, the index 
satisfies translation invariance and aggregation consistency and helps to decide public health priorities by relative importance of the indicators, by change in

for the j-th indicator. Other benefits of the proposed index include ranking and classification of regions, identification of critical indicators, assessing progress or decline in successive years reflecting effectiveness of public health policies and programmes, drawing path of progress/decline of the index across time, and facilitating better statistical inferences based on logarithms of the observations. The proposed index with improved quality of measurement facilitates meaningful comparisons and is critically relevant to players involved in public health including planners and researchers. The index can be multiplied by 100 to indicate percentage change in t-th period over the base period.
Proposed method of aggregation irrespective of inter-correlations among a number of indicators under a finite number of domains satisfying desired properties and offering benefits of aggregation consistency has clear theoretical advantages and is recommended. There is no alternate way but to elevating the quality of health care, for all citizens enabling India to reach Amritkaal to fulfill the nation’s aspirations. Future studies may be undertaken on how health is affected by anticipated future developments like climate change or increased potential of artificial intelligence.
