Özet

Purpose: A standard classification system for electronic health records kept in health assessment and treatment procedures is not common. This study was planned to draw attention to the International Health Intervention Classification (ICHI) of the World Health Organization, which is an international classification system, and to compare the health literacy levels of individuals from different generations. Materials and Methods: The health literacy level of individuals was evaluated with the European Health Literacy Survey –Turkish Version (HLS- TR). HLS- TR was investigated within the framework of The World Health Organization International Classification of Health Interventions (ICHI). Individuals were divided into 4 generation groups according to age range. The groups were compared with each other. Results: In this study, 247 individuals participated between the ages of 18 and 75 years. It is found that the traditionalist generation has the highest level of health literacy among the groups and generation Z has the lowest level of health literacy (p<0.001). For HLS- TR categories, ICHI coding was found adequate to support statistical reporting. Conclusion: Education and health policies planned according to the characteristics of generations are important in eliminating the inadequacies defined between generations. Recording data on health literacy using ICHI will contribute to improving public health and will enable us to have a wider data network.
