Background: Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) become a serious threat to global health. WHO 2016, reports that NCDs causes 70% of the world's total deaths. According to the results of Basic Health Research (RISKESDAS) in 2013 and 2018, it shown that there were an increasing trend in the prevalence of NCDs. From WHO data, in 2016, NCDs are estimated to account for 73% of all deaths.This phenomenon is predicted to continue if there are no disease control efforts that rely on the concept of prevention. It is important to objectively measure the population health to provide useful information to decision makers, health-sector leaders, researchers, and informed citizens. The WHO and other organizations started using DALYs as the criteria to reasonably allocate resources. It offered useful information to decision makers, health-sector leaders, researchers, and informed citizens.
Methods: This study measured the burden diseases of non-communicable diseases in Indonesia in 2019 using DALYs, YLL, and YLD parameter. Life expectancy of Indonesian was taken from the WHO data Life Tables year 2016.
Results: In 2019, NCDs responsible for 572,723 deaths for males, 505,142 deaths for female, 15.613 million YLL for male, 12.908 million YLL for female, 1.658 million YLD for male, 1.579 million YLD for female, 17.273 million DALY for male and 14.487 million DALYs for female.
Conclusion: Estimation the burden of dieases of NCDs using DALYs, YLL, and YLD parameter helps the government in determining health programs and to reduce prevalence and mortality of NCDs in Indonesia.
