European Healthcare Expenditure on Residential Long-Term Care Facilities by NPISH Financing Schemes by Country

In 2023, the UK led European healthcare expenditure on residential long-term care facilities by NPISH financing schemes, with an expenditure of 38.29 euros per capita. Austria and Cyprus followed, while countries like Poland, Greece, and Italy showed moderate growth in expenditure. Lithuania experienced the highest year-on-year increase of 24.57%, with Estonia also showing a notable 17.81% rise. In contrast, Germany and Hungary saw slight decreases. Over the last five years, the average annual growth rate has varied considerably across countries, reflecting diverse national priorities and economic capacities in healthcare financing.

Looking forward, increased aging populations and demand for long-term care will likely drive expenditure growth. Countries may also integrate digital health solutions to improve efficiency. Monitoring governmental policy changes and NPISH initiatives will be crucial in understanding investment patterns. Additionally, economic stability and EU funding may influence future expenditure trends across these countries.
