Its primary objective is to support the systematic mapping and analysis of developments in healthcare system generosity through the coding of legislative texts from different countries with different timeframes. Drawing on the concept of generosity, the codebook highlights two key dimensions: inclusiveness, which captures the social groups entitled to healthcare benefits, and scope of benefits, which refers to the range and level of in-kind and monetary benefits available to them. The codebook presents the codes, definitions, examples, and Annotation guidelines required to identify and classify information on healthcare entitlements in legal texts. Designed for application across diverse healthcare systems and legal contexts, the codebook facilitates consistent annotation and comparative research, supporting the analysis of variation and change in healthcare system.enhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/generosityhealthcare entitlementsinclusivenessscope of benefitslegislation300 Sozialwissenschaften::300 Sozialwissenschaften, SoziologieText::Bericht10.26092/elib/6197urn:nbn:de:gbv:46-elib250309
