Abstract
Health demography is a subdiscipline of demography that has gained in significance over recent years as a result of the increased interest in the health status of the U.S. population and the operation of the healthcare system. This chapter describes the activities of health demographers and the ways in which demographic data, concepts and techniques are applied to the study of concrete health problems related to health and healthcare.
