Abstract :Objective: One of the main goals of health systems is to improve and maintain public health. The performance of the health system has a strong impact on the health of the population, and better health outcomes can be achieved with high performance. The aim of the study is to examine Türkiye’s health performance in the last five years. Method: The five-year health indicators between 2018 and 2022 were examined in the study. A total of 45 indicators were evaluated under the headings of mortality, morbidity, disease prevention and health protection, institutions and infrastructures providing health services, health service use, human resources in health, and health economics and financing. The data were taken from the official page of the Health Statistics Yearbooks of the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Türkiye. The TOPSIS method was applied in the analysis. The data were analyzed with the MS Office Excel Program. Results: As a result of the analysis, 2022 ranked first with the highest performance (0.884). Then, it was found that the years 2021 (0.836), 2018 (0.745) and 2020 (0.686) showed high performance, respectively. The year 2019 ranks last with the lowest performance (0.226). Conclusion: There has been a positive increase in the performance of the health system in Türkiye in recent years. It is thought that the rapid interventions made during the COVID-19 pandemic, which has affected the whole world, also contributed to this result.
