The indicator is part of the EU Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) indicator set. It is used to monitor progress towards SDG 3 on good health and well-being. SDG 3 aims to ensure health and well-being for all at all ages by improving reproductive, maternal and child health; ending the epidemics of major communicable diseases; reducing non-communicable and mental diseases. SDG 3 also calls for reducing behavioural (drugs and alcohol abuse, tobacco) as well as environmental health risk factors (traffic accidents, chemicals and air, water and soil pollution and contamination). Main prerequisite for meeting these objectives are universal health coverage; access to sexual and reproductive health-care services and to safe, affordable and effective medicines and vaccines for all. Standardised death rates that are used for this indicator take into account that countries with larger shares of older inhabitants also have higher death rates. Member States have the main responsibility for their health care policy and for the organisation of their healthcare. However, EU Cohesion Policy aims at reducing disparities between EU regions, also in terms of endowment of health services. In addition, the EU climate and environmental policy also increases health and well-being.stainable Development Goals (SDG) indicator set.
