Description

This table represents five variants of health expectancies: -life expectancy in perceived good health. -life expectancy without physical limitations. -life expectancy without chronic morbidity. -without psychological complaints -life expectancy without GALI-limitations In addition, figures of 'normal' life expectancy are included, so the figures of health expectancy can be related to them. In the table, the data on health expectancy can be split into the following characteristics: -sex (starting from the data of 2018, the category ‘total, men + women’ is added). -age.

Using this table one can see the developments over time of health expectancies. For example it can be seen that morbidity free life expectancy of women shortened during the eighties and nineties. In the same period the life expectancy free of moderate and severe limitations of men increased.

Data available from: 1981

Status of the figures: The figures in this table are definitive.

Changes as of 14 June 2024: Figures on 2023 have been added

Changes as of 19 January 2024: In the calculation of life expectancy without psychological complaints, for the years 2020, 2021 and 2022, incorrect prevalences of ill health were used for children up to 12 years of age. That has now been adjusted. The correction leads, for children, to lower estimates of life expectancy without psychological complaints. In addition, standard errors have been added for life expectancy without psychological complaints for the ages 0, 1 and 5 years.

When will new figures be published? Third quarter of 2025.
