The aim of the action at the level of healthcare has become not only a quantitative dimension, which means extending the duration of life, but also qualitative, extension of the duration of life in good health, which is not accompanied by disability and activity limitation due to health living. Health gap is defined as the difference between the current state of health in the population and the condition termed full health. In contrast, the area between the survival curve and the estimated population norm for survival is called a gap in the population, which are the losses resulting from mortality before the expected age. The aim of this paper is to evaluate the size of the gap of health and gaps in the population and to determine the relationship between them as the risk function in health.
