This has the same problem as most of these models, animation speed instead of animation number. Though I wonder if you managed to fix the problem with the bar inaccuracy.

This bundle is marked as useful / simple. Simplicity is bliss, low effort and/or may contain minor bugs.
The following code shows the intended way to utilize the healthbar. Essentially it is a healthbar meant to be displayed only for a few moments before fading away. For best results, disable default healthbars. This can be useful if you are making a deception map where you do not want a player to easily locate where units are via their healthbar. Feel free to modify the model/texture to fit your needs.
JASS:
library HealthBar uses TimerUtils, UnitDex
globals
private constant real REFRESH =0.03125
private constant real ALPHA_RATE = REFRESH * 255 * 2
private effect array HealthBars
private real array HealthBarDur
private real array HealthBarAlpha
private boolean array Destroy
endglobals
private function Move takes nothing returns nothing
local timer t = GetExpiredTimer()
local integer id = GetTimerData(t)
local unit u = GetUnitById(id)
call BlzSetSpecialEffectPosition(HealthBars[id],GetUnitX(u),GetUnitY(u),BlzGetUnitZ(u))
if not Destroy[id] then
set HealthBarDur[id] = HealthBarDur[id] - REFRESH
if HealthBarDur[id] <= 0 or not UnitAlive(u) then
set Destroy[id] = true
set HealthBarAlpha[id] = 255
endif
else
set HealthBarAlpha[id] = HealthBarAlpha[id] - ALPHA_RATE
call BlzSetSpecialEffectAlpha(HealthBars[id],MathRound(HealthBarAlpha[id]))
if HealthBarAlpha[id] <= 0 then
call DestroyEffect(HealthBars[id])
set HealthBars[id] = null
set Destroy[id] = false
call ReleaseTimer(t)
endif
endif
set t = null
set u = null
endfunction
function AddHealthBar takes unit u, real dur, real per returns nothing
local integer id = GetUnitUserData(u)
set Destroy[id] = false
set HealthBarDur[id] = dur
if HealthBars[id] != null then
call BlzSetSpecialEffectAlpha(HealthBars[id],255)
else
set HealthBars[id] = AddSpecialEffect("HealthBarv18.mdx",GetUnitX(u),GetUnitY(u))
call BlzSetSpecialEffectScale(HealthBars[id],BlzGetUnitRealField(u,ConvertUnitRealField('ussc')))
call BlzSetSpecialEffectTimeScale(HealthBars[id],0)
call TimerStart(NewTimerEx(id),REFRESH,true,function Move)
endif
call BlzSetSpecialEffectTime(HealthBars[id],1 - per)
endfunction
endlibraryPreviews

This is intentional, because you can now set the animation time for effects, allowing for a light weight model with precise accuracy.

Might be useful to many map makers.
