Such a situation leads to an increase of funds spent on the health sector. Therefore the question arises as to whether it is possible to find the link between expenditure on health and health conditions among societies in the EU countries.

The problem of disability is perceived as one of the most serious social issues faced by the contemporary society. The number of people with disability is consistently rising for a variety of reasons, including the aging of the population. Data on disability are collected through numerous statistical surveys, among which censuses are the most wide-scale ones. In the period between the 2002 and 2011 censuses (the last two censuses conducted in Poland), a 14% decrease in the number of people with disabilities was observed. However, it should be emphasised that significant modifications were introduced to the methodology of the last census. Population census 2011 was the first census in Poland combing administrative data sources and the survey sampling method. The main objective of the study is to assess the quality of estimates relating to the number of disabled persons, obtained on the basis of the 2011 census data. It is a comparative study aimed at identifying the similarities and discrepancies between the estimates, and determining the size and source of these discrepancies. The analysis takes into account such aspects as the measurement methods, the definitions and criteria of disability, the voluntary nature of the question, and the quality of the information on disability obtained from various sources.

The aging society is a challenge that must be faced on many levels. One of the most important tasks is to provide the growing group of elderly people with the best possible living conditions, also in termsof health. Health is an important value for Poles, which directly affects their quality of life and their opportunities for engaging in various activities. The following article discusses selected studies on the health condition of Poles over 60 and the subjects’ self assessment concerning health. These data are analysed against comparable research results for the inhabitants of the selected other European countries. To attain the research objective, the author analyses the data from the reports published by the Central Statistical Office, Eurostat, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, and the results of the National Test for Poles’ Health. Focus is placed on issues such as: compliance with preventive recommendations, long-term health issues and chronic diseases, long-term limited capability to perform activities, use of medical consultations, hospitalisation, rehabilitation and surgical treatment, as well as subjective self-assessment of one’s health condition.
