| Résumé : | Slovak life expectancy has bounced back from a drop during the COVID-19 pandemic, while behavioural risk factors pose large risks to the general population health profile. Average life expectancy at birth in Slovakia increased by more than 4 years between 2000 and 2019 before falling by 3 years to 74.6 years in 2021 and then rebounding to 78 years in 2023. The rise in life expectancy was partially facilitated by a decrease in mortality rates, particularly for diseases of the circulatory system, though they remain the leading cause of mortality in Slovakia and accounted for 43% of all deaths in 2022. Dietary risks, alcohol and tobacco consumption have a strong influence on the health of the population, and it is estimated that nearly one third of total mortality resulted from behavioural risk factors. The Ministry of Health is the main steward of the Slovak health system; health insurance companies and regional authorities also have key roles. |
