Purpose of EHEMU
• To provide annual comparable health expectancy estimates for all European Union countries, in association with Eurostat
• To analyse and interpret the results
• To educate policy makers, politicians and the public in health expectancy as an indicator of population health

Rationale for Health Expectancies
Health Expectancies
• extend the notion of life expectancy to different health dimensions
• can simultaneously monitor trends in different health dimensions such as chronic morbidity, disability and poor self-rated health
• allow direct comparison of regions or population subgroups
• can assess whether we are exchanging longer life for poorer health

Euro-REVES: the foundation of EHEMU
• The sustained interest in disability-free life expectancy within countries led to a European research programme identifying reasons for the incomparability of European results (Biomed II, 1995-1997)
• From this, the development of a coherent set of health expectancies was proposed through the Health Monitoring Programme (1997-2002)
• The current move to standardised surveys in Europe (ECHP, SILC, and the future European Health Interview Survey) allows this development through EHEMU

EHEMU Creed• Calculation
- calculation, analysis and interpretation of current harmonized data (ECHP 1994-2001, EB 2002, SILC 2003+, EHIS 2007)
• Repository- EHEMU-calculated values- Available information on other studies calculating HE
• Education- Computation (including web-based)- Interpretation (including web-based)
• Extension of the network- Especially to new MS
• Dissemination-Through paper and web-based reports

EHEMU Creed• Calculation
- Trends in disability-free life expectancy using ECHP 1994-2001 data with extrapolation for 2002-3 in relation to the new structural indicator Healthy Life Years (HLY) - Interrelationships between different health dimensions using EB 2002
• Repository- EHEMU-calculated values- Available information on other studies calculating HE
• Education- Computation manual with extension for confidence intervals
• Extension of the network- Identifying EHEMU partners in all MS (policy and technical)
• Dissemination- Conception and development of EHEMU website - Country reports
