The assessment of health‐related quality of life (HR‐QOL) is an essential element of health care evaluation. Many generic and specific HR‐QOL instruments have been developed and include the Medical Outcomes Study 36‐Item Short Form (SF‐36) health survey; the Nottingham Health Profile (NHP); the Sickness Impact Profile (SIP); the Dartmouth Primary Care Cooperative Information Project (COOP) Charts; the Quality of Well‐Being (QWB) Scale; the Health Utilities Index (HUI); and the EuroQol Instrument (EQ‐5D) (Coons, Rao, Keininger, & Hays, 2000). The U.S. News & World Report (2019) reports that the country with the best quality of life is Canada, followed by Sweden and Denmark. The U.S. lags in sixth place.
