The analytic derivation of a more general model of survival-mortality and the estimation of a parameter bx related to the Healthy Life Years Lost (HLYL) is followed with the formulation of a computer program providing results similar to those of the World Health Organization for the Healthy Life Expectancy (HALE) and the corresponding HLYL estimates. This program is an extension of the classical life table including more columns to estimate the cumulative mortality, the average mortality, the person life years lost and finally the HLYL parameter bx. Evenmore, a further extension of the Excel program based on the Sullivan method provides estimates of the Healthy Life Expectancy at every year of the lifespan for five different types of estimates that are the Direct, WHO, Eurostat, Equal and Other. Estimates for several countries are presented. It is also presented a methodology and a program to bridge the gap between the World Health Organization (HALE) and Eurostat (HLE) healthy life expectancy estimates. The latest version of this program (SKI-6) appear in the Demographics2020 website.
