Morbidity vs. Mortality. Morbidity refers to the unhealthy state of an individual, while mortality refers to the state of being mortal. Both concepts can be applied at the individual level or across a population. For example, a morbidity rate looks at the incidence of a disease across a population and/or geographic location during a single year.
Mortality ratio. The number of patient deaths (mortality) in a hospital is shown as a mortality ratio that compares patients' actual mortality rates to their expected rate of mortality. The observed-to-expected mortality rate is a risk-adjusted measure of a hospital's mortality rate. This ratio is created from two sets of numbers: 1  Observed mortality. 2  The actual number of patients that died in the hospital each month. 3  Expected mortality.
