HALE: This is an estimate of the number of healthy years (free from disability or disease) that a person born in a particular year can expect to live based on current trends in deaths and disease patterns. The average number of years spent in unhealthy states is subtracted from the overall life expectancy, taking into account the relative severity of such states.
DALYs for a disease or health condition are calculated as the sum of the Years of Life Lost (YLL) due to premature mortality in the population and the Years Lost due to Disability (YLD) for incident cases of the health condition.
So, going by this defination it seems HALE is the answer.
