Purpose – analyzing morbidity, life expectancy, mortality in Ukraine and Transcarpathian region in particular and determine the factors that affect the poor dynamics of demographic processes and population health. Methodology of research. The theoretical basis of the study is the scientific works of local scientists for the investigated problem, laws and regulations of Ukraine. In the process of general scientific methods were used, including: methods of formal logic, systematization and generalization, tabular and graphical analysis. The information base for the research was the official information of the State Statistics Service of Ukraine, the data on the Internet, their analytical calculations. Findings. Proved that medical and demographic processes in the region and the results of the operation of health facilities inherent dynamism, which is accompanied by increased morbidity and mortality, reduction in the number of medical institutions and medical personnel restructuring of disease prevalence, extension of life expectancy and more. Established that since independence the population in Ukraine declined every year, in the last four years, this figure was reduced by an average of 187.2 thousand people per year, or 0.2%. In contrast to this negative dynamics in the region with 2008 observed growth of the population, in particular the 2010 average of 3.2 thousand people annually or 0.1%. This is because Transcarpathia belongs to the group of regions where traditions are preserved and the birth of two more children with low prevalence of abortion and low level of illegitimate births. The demographic situation in the region, in addition to increase in fertility and mortality reduction, also characterized by a slight increase in life expectancy. If in 2010, life expectancy at birth was 70.84 years, in 2013 – 71.02 years. Revealed that the basis of the structure of disease prevalence in the population of Transcarpathian region traditionally shaped, respiratory diseases; cardiovascular diseases; diseases of the digestive system; injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes; diseases of the eye and adnexa.
