THE HEALTH STATUS OF THE POPULATION BEYOND WORKING AGE IN THE TRANSBAIKAL TERRITORY

Abstract

The aim of the research. To analyze morbidity rates by turnover, mortality of the population over the working age in the Trans-Baikal Territory.Materials and methods. The work analyzed morbidity rates by turnover, mortality among the population older than working age. The sources of information were collections of the Ministry of Health of the region and the Russian Federation, as well as data from official sources of Rosstat. The work calculates the indicators of the dynamic range. Graphical forecasting was performed for the indicators in the Microsoft Excel program with the construction of a trend line.Results. In 2022, the share of the population over the working age in the region was 20%. Thus, over a 10year period, the number of people in this age group increased by 11,4%. The primary morbidity rate in 2022 amounted to more than 57 thousand cases per 100 thousand population. The primary morbidity rate of the population over the working age in the region remained lower than similar indicators for the Far Eastern Federal District and the Russian Federation. The total incidence of the older generation in the region in 2022 amounted to about 220 thousand cases per 100 thousand population. The level of general morbidity in the region is lower than the same indicator in the Russian Federation. The mortality rate of the population over the working age in 2022 amounted to 43,7 cases per 100 thousand population. When comparing mortality rates in the region and the Russian Federation, higher rates were observed in the region throughout the analyzed period, on average by 8%.Conclusions. Morbidity rates in terms of turnover among the older generation in the Trans-Baikal Territory tend to increase over the analyzed period. At the same time, these indicators remain lower than those in the Far Eastern Federal District and the Russian Federation. The mortality rate of the population of this age group remains higher than in the Russian Federation. The analysis of the health status of the older generation in the region indicates the need for managerial decisions in the regional health system.
