European Healthcare Expenditure on Long Term Care (Health) by NPISH Financing Schemes by Country

In 2023, Germany and the United Kingdom led European healthcare expenditure on long-term care by NPISH financing schemes, with significant per capita spending. Poland saw the highest year-over-year growth of 6.54%, while Germany had steady but slower growth at 1.67%. Notable increases were observed in Estonia at 24.88% and Greece at 8.31%. Overall, substantial disparities were evident between countries, with low spending in Latvia and Lithuania.

Future trends to watch include:

• Growing influence of demographic changes on long-term care needs.
• Potential increases in investment due to aging populations, particularly in Eastern Europe.
• Enhanced policy emphasis on sustainable funding models might foster broader adoption or restructuring of NPISH financing schemes.
