Annex I – part III – point 1.1 – paragraph 2
The cost of Union health and social care systems is rising with care and prevention measures in all ages increasingly expensive, the number of Europeans aged over 65 expected to nearly double from 85 million in 2008 to 151 million by 2060, and those over 80 to rise from 22 to 61 million in the same period. Reducing or containing these costs such that they do not become unsustainable depends in part on ensuring the lifelong health and wellbeing of all and therefore on the effective prevention, treatment and management of disease and disabilityDemographic changes, particularly ageing, have a significant gender dimension, with women accounting for most of the elderly population and most of the care-givers. Adopting a more holistic approach and taking into consideration amongst other factors, sex and gender differences, on the effective prevention, treatment and management of disease and disability, would ensure the lifelong health and wellbeing of all and therefore would reduce these costs so as not to become unsustainable.
