| Annotation | Sixth paper in the annual International Research Conference on Social Security held in May 2003, Antwerp, and hosted by the International Social Security Association (ISSA); its theme being "Social security in a long life society". Speakers came from across the European Union. Professor Stefan Felder of Otto von Guericke University, Magdeburg, Germany notes that considerable portions of an individual's health expenditure during his life are determined by his remaining lifetime and not by chronological age. However, a long life society does have an unambiguous impact on the financing of social security systems. This paper includes statistics and graphs as supporting information. (RH). |
