Abstract

The WHO worldwide policy "Health for all by the year 2000" has been adapted into "Targets for health for all by the year 2000" for Europe. The issue of the elderly is addressed by the slogan "Add life to years", the issue of the disabled by "Better opportunities for disabled persons". To support the monitoring process towards attainment of the regional targets, a list of regional indicators was proposed. These indicators are either parts of the national health information systems already, or are developed ad hoc through sample surveys. The indicators in care of the elderly and disabled are reviewed with regard to previous developments of data base on consequences of diseases, malformations and injuries.
