Summary/Abstract: This article reflects on the connections and mutual influence of the social inequality and health status of the populations. There are emphasized the dimensions of equity in relation to health on one health and in relation to health care on the other. Derived from the assumption that the health is intrinsic component of the human well being it is underlined that the methodology for monitoring of the health and health inequalities on different levels should be attuned to the specific economical, socio-cultural and demographic indicators of each country. To generalize the immense social significance of public health sciences we demonstrated the remarkable trend in developed countries especially in EU to derive social security as dominating priority and to resolve in an enhanced manner the existing problems of the most vulnerable and demanding social support groups and individuals.
