# Longevity Lift

Life expectancy relative to countries with similar measured resources.

Period: 2023 · 193 calculated values / 197 economy rows · Unit: Years relative to peer median

Life expectancyᵢ − median(life expectancy of income peers excluding i)

## Definition

GDP per person is constant-2021 PPP output. Peers have GDP between GDPᵢ / 1.25 and GDPᵢ × 1.25 in 2023. The country itself is excluded. Require at least five other economies with both observations. Subtract the unweighted peer median from life expectancy. Also recompute with factors 1.20 and 1.35; publish all memberships and results.

## How to interpret it

This descriptive benchmark is not healthcare efficiency or years caused by policy. GDP is not health spending or household resources. Geography, mortality estimation, population composition, inequality and small-economy effects are not controlled. Band sensitivity is not a confidence interval. A sign-stable label only means the sign agrees across all three adequately populated peer bands.

This is a named diagnostic, not an official statistic, causal model or universal prosperity score. Missing outputs remain unavailable. Source estimates, normative choices and uncertainty are distinct.
