Costa Rica’s mortality rate dropped steadily from 14.1 in 1990 to 6.9 in 2022, underscoring its strong healthcare system. By 2000, the rate had decreased to 11.1, driven by universal health coverage and targeted public health campaigns.
Between 2000 and 2022, the decline slowed, reflecting Costa Rica's already low mortality levels. By 2022, the rate stabilized at 6.9, highlighting consistent investment in healthcare infrastructure and emphasis on preventative care. Despite this success, addressing healthcare disparities in remote areas remains critical.
