Abstract

A review of scientific works, dedicated to the assessment of population health stat u s and its use for hea lthca re ma nagement m ay lead to the conclusion that many problems have been resolved, at least at the theoretical and methodological levels. However, in this sphere there are still a number of issues, which complicate obtaining the adequate picture of this phenomenon - both at the country level as well as at the level of separate regions. These issues hamper the opportunity to increase the efficiency of healthcare strategies, aimed at strengthening population health and life expectancy prolongation. The article contains the description of methods for adjusting age-specific rates and procedures for regional ranking and clusterization. The paper presents the results of rankings and groups of Russian regions with similar levels of age-standardized death and incidence rates for 1994-2013. As a result of this analysis the author revealed differences between regions with low and high health losses. This contradiction can be explained with the fact that people rarely seek hospital medical attention due to insufficient development of healthcare in these regions.
