| description | Since the demographic situation in the Russian Federation is characterised by high mortality of the economically active
population, it is necessary to assess significant economic and social losses for the country and its regions. In this regard, the
importance of the research lies in developing a methodology to assess economic losses from premature mortality of the population.
We hypothesise that both the loss of production of goods and services and the volume of their consumption determine the value
of economic losses from premature mortality, which can be differentiated by gender, age and causes of death of the population,
depending on regional characteristics. As the main research methods, we applied statistical data analysis using the methodology
of the System of National Accounts (SNA). Then, we proposed a methodological approach to a comprehensive assessment of
economic losses from premature mortality of the population based on three differentiating features such as gender, age, and cause
of death. Moreover, we structure economic losses, depending on the components of the gross regional product in the present and
in the future. We have substantiated the feasibility of considering the consumption of goods and services by the unemployed
population aged from 0 to 72 years in the structure of economic losses from premature mortality. We tested the methodology
on the statistical database of Federal State Statistic Service (Rosstat) for the Perm region in the period 2009 — 2017. The
methodological approach allowed us to comprehensively analyse the economic losses from premature mortality of the population
in the region. In contrast to those strategies described in the academic literature, our methodology provides a more complete
assessment of the magnitude of economic losses, allowing the selection of effective tools for regional health policy. |
