English translation:normal usage, rate of use
Explanation:
Literally, normal consumption, nominal consumption or rated consumption (see Kudoz web ref.). Whether 'consumption' is appropriate for healthcare services is debatable, of course. Hence my neutral suggestion of 'usage' or 'rate of use'.

-> "Table 1 shows the proportionate usage of different types of healthcare across income quintiles ... Is the higher usage of healthcare services by those on lower incomes equal to their ‘need’ as shown by chronic illness?"
