Abstract

An administrator of a Health Program aiming at the control of a specified disease has a need for a quantitative evaluation of the consequences of the Program's realization. On the population level, Lifetime Lost (LTL) figures calculated for both target and reference populations might be used for this purpose. The LTL methodology provides a user with a new procedure for medical data processing. It allows to estimate the LTL values from mortality data only, without the laborious procedure of registration of the morbidity episodes in target and reference populations. This approach is valid for a special case of degenerative diseases.
