This platform to facilitate access to the data produced by the Lancet Commission on Global Access to Palliative Care and Pain Relief (GAPCPR) was released as a service to the global palliative care community by the IAHPC together with the University of Miami Institute for Advanced Study of the Americas (UMIA), and the Mexican Health Foundation (FUNSALUD). The platform, created by researchers at UMIA and FUNSALUD, works in Tableau and enables users to calculate serious health related suffering (SHS) and the need for palliative care by income and geographic region for a vast number of countries. The data come from the GAPCPR Report "Alleviating the access abyss in palliative care and pain relief—an imperative of universal health coverage" and an extensive data appendix.
