The aim of the article is to show the evolution of health and its place in the Council of Europe human rights protection system. The author analyses the main legal acts: European Convention on Human Rights, European Social Charter, European Convention on Social and Medical Assistance, Medicrime Convention and many others. The author shows the evolution and approach to health of the Council of Europe institutions: Committee of Ministers, Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, European Court of Human Rights, The European Directorate for the Quality of Medicines, The Steering Committee for Human Rights. In the light of the above analysis legal protection of human right to health remains unsatisfactory. The European Convention on Human Rights does not guarantee a right to health-care or a right to be healthy. This is guaranteed, however, by other documents. From European legal perspective only an integrated approach to human right to health, taking into account both civil, political, economic, social and cultural rights, seems the most stable response to health care needs.

This article deals with the theoretical, legal, and practical aspects of filing inter-state complaints to the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) and their consideration by the Court. It describes the evolution, essence, and current legal regulation of the institution of inter-state application expressed in the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms (ECHR) and the ECtHR’s regulations. The article compares the qualitatively different complaints filed by post-Soviet states with those lodged by the so-called senior members of the Council of Europe (CoE) and examines the possible correlation between them. The article describes to what extent the inter-state application is the primary mechanism for ensuring verification of mutual compliance with the provisions of the ECHR as objective obligations, and to what extent it reflects the political aspirations of states-parties. However, the analysis shows that, in the vast majority of cases, states submit complaints in order to obtain short-term political and economic benefits. It has been shown that some inter-state applications are in fact disguised individual complaints.
