Mortality-adjusted indicators
The standard chronological measure of age makes less sense because the biological age has changed in relation to chronological age.
In the US, a 75-year-old today has the same mortality rate as a 65-year-old in 1952. In Japan, 80 is the new 65. This brings a very different perspective on what is happening to OADRs in advanced economies.
