THE MANAGEMENT OF SOCIO-ECONOMIC FACTORS OF REDUCING MORTALITY FROM EXTERNAL CAUSES IN REGIONS CENTRAL FEDERAL DISTRICT
The article shows that today the problem of a high level of mortality in the Russian Federation does not lose its relevance, and low life expectancy in comparison with developed countries is largely due to high mortality from external causes that lead to significant socio-economic losses. The study assessed the dynamics of mortality in the RF and the regions of the Central Federal District in terms of classes of causes on the basis of statistical data published by the State Service of State Statistics. At the first stage, we estimated the dynamics of mortality in the Russian Federation from external causes by main types in the period 2008-2015. At the second stage, the structure of mortality from external causes in the Central Federal District (as one of the most socially-economically sound in the Russian Federation) was estimated for 2016 on the basis of statistical data on the number of deaths per 100,000 population. In the course of the study, the method of rationing for mortality rates was used. According to the results of the study, it was established that mortality from external causes occupies a significant share in the structure of mortality in the Russian Federation. Analysis of the structure of mortality from external causes in the Central Federal District made it possible to establish that in 2016 the lowest level of mortality from external causes is observed in the Belgorod region. For other regions, this indicator exceeds the value of 100 people per 100 thousand. The absolute leader in the number of deaths from external causes per 100 thousand populations is the Voronezh region. Socio-economic measures to reduce mortality from external causes are presented in the research.
