The forecast for premature mortality in Canada expressed in Years of Life Lost (YLL) per hundred thousand persons is expected to rise steadily from 2024 through 2028. Starting at 61.51 YLL in 2024, the value is projected to increase annually by about 0.5% to reach 62.64 YLL in 2028. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over the five-year forecast period is approximately 0.5%, indicating a persistent, albeit modest, increase.
Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in health policies, emerging healthcare technologies, and demographic changes that could either temper or amplify these escalation rates. Monitoring these factors will be crucial in evaluating future trends in premature mortality in Canada.
