Inequality in healthy life expectancy at birth LA (male) (12004) Metric type
- Help text
- This sub-indicator measures inequalities in healthy life expectancy within local authorities. Healthy life expectancy at birth is calculated for each middle super output area and then the slope index of inequality (SII) is calculated based on these figures. The SII is a measure of the social gradient in healthy life expectancy, i.e. how much healthy life expectancy varies with deprivation. It takes account of health inequalities across the whole range of deprivation within the local authority and summarises this in a single number. This represents the range in years of healthy life expectancy across the social gradient from most to least deprived, based on a statistical analysis of the relationship between healthy life expectancy and deprivation across all middle super output areas.
Healthy life expectancy is a measure of the average number of years a person would expect to live in good health based on contemporary mortality rates and prevalence of self-reported good health. The prevalence of good health is derived from responses to a question on general health in the 2011 Census. Healthy life expectancy is the average number of years a person might expect to live in good? health in their lifetime.
Figures are based on 5 years of pooled data (rather than 3 years for other indicators)
