United States to achieve over the first decade of the new century. These
objectives set specific targets to help guide states, communities, professional

Americans. Healthy People 2010 objectives and targets were developed
in consultation with a wide range of experts on the basis of the best-available
and most up-to-date scientific knowledge. In this report, the 15 indicators
used to assess the health of adults aged 65 or older are based on the Healthy
People 2010 targets.
