Healthy life expectancy (HLE) is an estimate of expected years of life spent in self-reported good health. The figure used is for females aged under 1 year. Figures are based on the number of deaths registered and mid-year population estimates, aggregated over three consecutive years.

It is used as a high-level outcome to contrast and monitor the health status of different populations at specific points in time, giving context to the impacts of policy changes and interventions at both national and local levels.

Healthy life expectancy has value across state, private, and voluntary sectors, in the assessment of healthy ageing, fitness for work, health improvement monitoring, extensions to the state pension age, pension provision, and health and social care need. This indicator is an extremely important summary measure of mortality and morbidity. It complements the supporting indicators such as mortality by cause by showing the overall trends and setting the context in which local authorities can assess the other indicators and identify the drivers of healthy life expectancy.

The health prevalence data used in calculating HLE estimates for the various geographies in England were derived from the Annual Population Survey (APS).

In Latin American countries (LAC) there were registered 330,259,608 women by 2021, each of them has a life expectancy of approximately 75 years. However, not all of them have the opportunity to achieve this, since only in 2021 there were 4,425 women who died from femicides (aggravated homicide for gender reasons) and 2,571 died from maternal mortality.

This dataset allows to understand two of the reasons for womens deaths (femicides and maternal mortality). This gives insights from:

• Female population in LAC
• Female life expectancy
• Number of Femicides
• Maternal mortality rate
• Global peace index

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 (until 2023) -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 November 1, 2024: The 2023 figures on life expectancy without psychological complaints were missing standard errors for ages 0, 1 and 5. These have now been added. It is further explained that no new figures will be published about life expectancy without psychological complaints.

When will new figures be published? The figures for 2024 will be published in the third quarter of 2025. The figures on 'Life expectancy without psychological complaints' will no longer be supplemented from statistical year 2024 (see Sources and Methods).
