description WHAT IS ALREADY KNOWN ABOUT THIS TOPIC? Traditionally, life expectancy has served as a pivotal measure for assessing population health. However, there is an increasing focus on distinguishing healthy years of life from those characterized by illness, particularly among the elderly population. WHAT IS ADDED BY THIS REPORT? This study conducts an exhaustive global analysis of the trends in healthy and unhealthy life expectancy among adults aged 60 and over from 1990 to 2019. These trends are further correlated with socio-demographic indicators and health services metrics. WHAT ARE THE IMPLICATIONS FOR PUBLIC HEALTH PRACTICE? Comprehending the dynamics between healthy and unhealthy life years can equip policymakers with the necessary insights to prioritize interventions. These interventions can thereby secure both quality and longevity of life for the increasingly aging population.
