Health domain. Changes, additions, or subtractions in Metric listed by indicator with justification of reasons for change. There are no changes to the Indicator names from the original HWBI.

Indicator	Original Metric	New Metric	Justification
Healthcare	Population with regular family doctor	Usual source of care	Change made to account for different data source. Same concept measured.
Healthcare		Medical needs met	This metric is added to measure the quality of care received. It should align closely with frustration metric.
Healthcare		Well-child check-ups	This metric is added to capture the likelihood of children getting routine medical care and/or vaccinations.
Life Expectancy and mortality	Asthma Mortality Cancer Mortality Diabetes Mortality Heart Disease Mortality	Child Mortality	Four metrics are collapsed down to a single mortality metric that captures all non-intentional deaths among children 2–17.
Lifestyle and Behavior	Alcohol Consumption	Alcohol/Drug Abuse	Metric changed to reflect the YRBS survey questions as well as a more holistic picture of risks posed to their health.
Physical and Mental Health Conditions	Asthma Prevalence Diabetes Prevalence Heart Attack Prevalence Heart Disease Prevalence Stroke Prevalence	General Health	Collapsed down to single metric due to data limitations and lack of impact among children.
Personal Well-Being	Life Satisfaction	dropped	Data is not available for this metric in children.
