The article objective is to show the dynamics features of population morbidity of the Siberian Federal District and its regions for 1995-2015, carry out a comparative analysis of population morbidity in the Siberian and other Federal Districts, and in Russia as a whole. Multiregional demographic analysis of dynamic series is used as a research tool. Rosstat data are the study information base. The paper shows that despite the mortality decrease and life expectancy growth in the recent years, the situation with morbidity in the Siberian Federal District and in the country continues to be tense. The Siberian Federal District ranks first in main diseases classes in the country, and first, in those, which make a major contribution to the population mortality and disability. Moreover, the first places in these classes of diseases relate to a younger age population group than the average in Russia, and especially in the Central and North-Western Federal Districts. In future the population ageing may lead to further exacerbating of negative trends In the Siberian Federal district itself, Altaisky Krai has the negative position with the highest morbidity level, for a long time holding the first places on the incidence of circulatory and oncological diseases. A special anxiety is much higher growth of the children, and especially, adolescent morbidity in comparison with the whole population. The tendency to deterioration of morbidity indicators among children and adolescents may lead to the health weakening in all population age groups. Authors conclude that against the background of depopulation and out-migration there was a decrease in population size and its quality due to morbidity growth and ageing. All together, this affects adversely both the demographic potential and population reproduction, and the economy state and prospects.
