The aim of the paper is to analyse relations between poverty, social exclusion and health status of the Polish population in a context of health inequalities research that is common in Western Europe. Significant differences in health status by sex and age as well as socio-economic status are observable. The latter ones are related to expenditures level and unemployment. Another factors that strongly differentiate health status are social networks and social support from the closest ones. Health inequalities in longevity and morbidity on selected diseases (TB) between regions are driven mainly by unemployment level in regions.
