Abstrakt: Health behavior appears to be one of the key factors in prevention, which also affects the health economy. Maintaining health care puts increasing pressure on Hungarian society due to the growing aging. Healthy lifestyle and health consciousness provide effective help in maintaining a good level and longtime of quality of life. The impact of health behaviors in the health economy on financing means an increasingly important social problem. In Hungary, health behavior is low compared to European nations. The reduction of economic factors can be achieved by prevention, health improvement and years of health. The professional basis of this research are given by the individual image of health and the individual and social health behavior which are supported by the healthcare/health economy. Our research examines local health behavior and satisfaction with health care, in which we analyze the results in comparison with regional environmental conditions compare with the European health behavior research. The correlation between health economic factors and health behavior was revealed by secondary research, while the method of our empirical study is a questionnaire survey that presents health image, local health opportunities and relationships in several age groups. Based on the results of our survey, it became evident that the results of the Hungarian health behavior were the same in the central settlement of the western region of the country, where the economic indicators show a higher proportion than the national average. The low level of health consciousness and the low level of health behavior did not show significance, as is the case in European countries, in terms of higher health image and higher economic factors. On the other hand, in terms of educational attainment, there was a higher level of health awareness. Health as an economic factor plays a key role in employment, as healthy employees participate in the maintenance of the nation as an economic factor [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
