Task Force HLY- DFLE 25/01/2005 Structural indicator HLY – DFLE Future developments : SILC Other improvements Other set of indicators Eurostat D-6 Eurostat D-6 Task Force HLY-DFLE - Meeting 25/01/2005 1
Implementation and first availability of SILC data • EU-SILC (European Statistics on Income & Living Conditions survey) established by EP & Council Regulation (EC) 1177/2003 and its list of variables by Commission Regulation (EC) 1983/2003 • SILC carriedout from (year of first data collection data available later): • 2003 (interim version): BE, DK, GR, IE, LU, AT & NO • 2004: ES, FR, IT, PT, FI, SE • 2005: DE, NL, UK & the new Member States • Source of data on limitations in functioning / disability in SILC : in Minimum European Health Module (MEHM) Eurostat D-6 Task Force HLY-DFLE - Meeting 25/01/2005 2
MEHM in SILC data • Minimum European Health Module - MEHM (also included in the health status module of the ECHIS but only every 5 years) : • PH010 General health : Very good / good / fair / bad /very bad • PH020 Suffer from any chronic (long-standing) illness or condition: Yes/no • PH030 “Limitation in activities people usually do because of health problems for at least the last 6 months : Strongly limited / limited / not limited” • (PH040 – PH070 on access to health care = social exclusion) • EU-wide implementation of EU-SILC as data source will provide a high standard of harmonization of HLY-DFLE Eurostat D-6 Task Force HLY-DFLE - Meeting 25/01/2005 3
Use of PH030 of MEHM (SILC) for calculation of HLY-DFLE from 2003/2004/2005 reference year • First 2003 data available for 6 MS & NO to be evaluated in the following months & tests for HLY-DFLE calculations will be carried out when data made available • However, translations issues remain for some countries : contacts with Eurostat D-2 in charge of SILC in order to solve it with MS & if necessary with SILC working group • First HLY-DFLE calculated on SILC for 6 MS & NO (2003) by end 2005 for SI to be used for 2006 Spring report, by end 2006 for 2004 values of HLY-DFLE for 2007 Spring report & end 2007 for 2005 values of HLY-DFLE for 2008 Spring report respectively • Break in series with previous data calculated on ECHP (EU15 MS excl. LU) or national sources (some new MS) Eurostat D-6 Task Force HLY-DFLE - Meeting 25/01/2005 4
Other improvements to be developed on the basis of EHEMU works • Census based information on people living in institutions can be included in a second stage to take their specific characteristics into account in the calculation (information in EU census 2000) • Possibility of crossing answers to several questions in the MEHM (self-perceived health with existence of limitations for ex.) to obtain more accurate prevalence measures • Others Eurostat D-6 Task Force HLY-DFLE - Meeting 25/01/2005 5
Other sets of indicators : Sustainable Development Indicators – SDI –Indicators on Public Health • Level I : Disability Free Life Expectancy = HLY - DFLE • Level II (also a level III) : • II-1 Human health protection and lifestyles : 1) body mass index, by age group (source = ECHP and 18 HIS items; 2) resistance to antibiotics (S.Pneumoniae - source = DG SANCO, EARSS - European Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance System - project) • Other groups : II-2 Food safety and quality, II-3 Chemicals management, II-4 Health risks due to environmental conditions • Ongoing implementation, data & graphs already in Circa SDI site; release at time 2005 Spring Council -> Eurostat web site Eurostat D-6 Task Force HLY-DFLE - Meeting 25/01/2005 6
