In this chapter, the results of different micro- and macro-economic original analyses are presented. The objective is to measure the economic burden of poor health in the SEE countries in terms of productivity, participation in the labour market, labour supply and growth rates. The conceptual framework used to analyse the inter-relationship between health and economic development is introduced, and evidence from other high-income countries on the economic benefits of health (or the costs of ill health) briefly reviewed.
