European Healthcare Expenditure on Long Term Care (Health) by Government Schemes and Compulsory Contributory Health Care Financing Schemes by Country

The European healthcare expenditure on long-term care varies significantly by country. In 2024, Norway leads with 3.27% of GDP, followed by the Netherlands and Sweden. Iceland shows a minor reduction, while Belgium and Denmark report slight decreases. Germany and Malta exhibit considerable growth year-on-year. Eastern European countries like Poland and the Czech Republic see substantial increases, influenced by enhanced government schemes.

Observing future trends, European countries are likely to face increased pressure on long-term care systems due to aging populations, necessitating adaptations in government and compulsory contributory healthcare financing schemes to ensure sustainability and equity. Watch for policy shifts and innovations in long-term care provision.
