In 2024, Germany leads European household expenditure on out-patient services, with France and Italy following, indicating a higher accessibility or demand for such services. Conversely, Nordic countries like Finland, Sweden, and Norway, as well as some Eastern European and Baltic states, report significantly lower expenditure levels, likely due to more comprehensive state-funded healthcare systems.
Year-on-year variations in 2023 show rapid increases in household expenditure in Romania, Lithuania, and Slovakia, while Spain and Cyprus experienced declines. The past five years have shown considerable growth in Poland, Portugal, and the United Kingdom, influenced by socio-economic shifts and healthcare system changes.
Looking forward, trends to watch include increasing privatization in mature markets driving up costs and expenditure, potential policy changes in public healthcare funding in response to economic pressures, and varying impacts of technological advancements on healthcare accessibility and efficiency across Europe.
