This is the repository for the English version of the Future Elderly Model, originally developed at the Leonard D. Schaeffer Center for Health Policy and Microsimulation.
This paper from the lancet investigated the best predictors of 5 year mortality in UK Biobank participants. Amongst the most predictive was self-reported health. This is in ELSA, so I'm going to add this var in and reduce the model down to the bare minimum of chronic diseases and risk behaviours.

Will need to add vars for current, lag, dummy vars for each level and probability vars. Similar to adlstat.
