The objective of this survey was to provide health related community-based data and information to the Ministry of Health to review health priorities, program strategies and activities, and to plan for the allocation of resources for pre-elderly and elderly health care services. This survey was conducted as a nation-wide community-based survey targeting elderly aged 60 years or more and pre-elderly aged 50 to 59 years. Data was collected via face to-face interview at respondent’s homes using mobile devices with various assessments done based on topics. A total of 5,636 living quarters were approached with 7,117 respondents successfully interviewed.
