Health is a direct source of human well-being, as well as a means of increasing the level of his income. A number of mechanisms through which health can influence income are discussed, focusing on labor productivity, child education, savings and investment, and demographic structure. The main source of increasing the income of the population is the development of qualified education. The selection of qualified specialists in the country today is considered one of the most pressing issues. Especially in the medical field. To do this, it was emphasized that it is necessary to increase investment in human capital. At the same time, one of the factors affecting the income of the population is the employment of the able-bodied population. During the transition to a market economy, medical services were paid, so most of the population did not have access to medical services, so it was not possible to treat various diseases. In order to prevent this, proposals and recommendations have been developed.
