Chile’s mortality rate decreased steadily from 16.1 in 1990 to 5.4 in 2022, driven by public health reforms and socio-economic development. By 2000, the rate had fallen to 9.3, reflecting improvements in maternal and child healthcare, nutrition programs, and expanded immunization coverage.
From 2000 to 2022, the rate continued its downward trend as healthcare infrastructure strengthened, reducing preventable deaths. By 2020, the mortality rate was 5.9, highlighting Chile’s success in addressing infectious diseases and chronic health conditions, though inequities in rural healthcare remain areas for improvement.
