One serious pandemic can nullify years of efforts to extend life expectancy and reduce disability. The coronavirus pandemic has been a perturbing factor that has provided an opportunity to assess not only the effectiveness of health systems for cardio-vascular diseases (CVD), but also their sustainability. The goal of our research is to analyze the influence of public health factors on the mortality from circulatory diseases using machine learning methods. We analysed a very large dataset that consisted of the information collected from the national registers in Russia. We included data from 2015 to 2021. It included 340 factors that characterize organization of healthcare in Russia. The resulting area under receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC of ROC) of the Random Forest based regression model was 92% with a testing dataset. The models allow for automated retraining as time passes and epidemiological and other situations change. They also allow additional characteristics of regions and health care organizations to be added to existing training datasets depending on the target. The developed models allow the calculation of the probability of the target for 6-12 months with an error of 8%. Moreover, the models allow to calculate scenarios and the value of the target indicator when other indicators of the region change.
