Очаквана продължителност на живота в добро здраве в България по пол и за специфични възрасти през периода 2011–2016
Healthy Life Years in Bulgaria by Sex and Specific Ages in the Period 2011-2016

Summary/Abstract: The results of the analysis of selected indicators for healthy life years by sex and for specific ages in Bulgaria in the period 2011 - 2016 are presented. Insofar as the essence of the applied method for calculating the indicators of health expectancy presupposes a complex analysis of the individual components (life expectancy and the subjective dimension of health), first of all the results of the descriptive analysis of the distributions of persons by self-perceived health and the existence of limitation, sex and age are presented. The differences in the self-perceived health, resp. the presence of limitations predetermine the differences in the values of the integrated indicator. The changes of the two indicators, calculated using both questions, are analysed sequentially. The problem of comparability of indicators calculated based on different surveys data is also discussed. A comparative analysis of healthy life years in Bulgaria in 2014 by sex and age, calculated using data from EU-SILC and EHIS is done.
