Abstract

[The estimation of Healthy life expectancy (HLE) is an old venture, an effort of numerous researchers worldwide during the last decades to develop a suitable, effective and precise relevant methodology. The World Health Organization (WHO) has already developed an efficient but highly complicated procedure based on the “Global Burden of Disease Study”, details of each are seen on the relevant website (https://www.who.int/-data/gho/-data/themes-/mortality-and-global-health-estimates/ghe-life-expectancy-and-healthy-life-expectancy). In any case, the direct knowledge of a population’s HLE is necessary not only for researchers of mortality and longevity but also as an essential tool for policymakers and the public administration.]
