This dissertation investigates healthy life expectancy, a crucial indicator that combines life duration with quality of life, expressing the years a person is expected to live free from health issues. Estimating healthy life expectancy is vital for shaping health policies, as it allows for the assessment of a population's health status and pinpoints necessary interventions. The first chapter explores the concepts of life expectancy and healthy life, as well as the evolution of these indicators at the European and global levels. The methodology used in this study is based on morbidity and mortality data from official sources such as Eurostat for the Greek population. The Sullivan method, a widely recognized methodology combining mortality and morbidity into a single measure, was employed to estimate healthy life expectancy. Additionally, various morbidity indicators, such as activity limitations due to illness and chronic diseases, derived from the SHARE survey, were analyzed. The findings showed that while overall life expectancy in Greece is increasing, the final years of life are often spent with health problems, highlighting the need for improved healthcare quality and chronic disease prevention. This information is critical for developing policies aimed at promoting healthy aging and reducing the burden of disease.
