The main issues of the public health are examined based on the implementation of the healthy life expectancy indicator (HALE) of the population. HALE measures how many years on average are expected to be spent by a person, at a certain age, in good health, taking into consideration the specific mortality rates, morbidity and disability risk for the given year. HALE is an indicator of the state of health, which reflects the impact of mortality and morbidity.
