European healthcare expenditure on home-based long-term care shows significant variation by country in 2024. Norway leads with the highest per capita expenditure at 1.03 thousand euros, followed by Finland and Germany. Countries like Malta, Denmark, and Ireland exhibit moderate spending levels, whereas Eastern and Southern European countries such as Poland, Spain, and Italy have considerably lower expenditures. Notably, nations like Hungary and Greece feature at the bottom of the list, reflecting minimal investments.
The year-on-year variations reveal notable growth trends in some countries. Slovenia, Estonia, and Czech Republic highlight the most substantial increases, suggesting these countries are prioritizing home-based long-term care. On the contrary, Hungary shows a decline, indicating a shift or reallocation of healthcare resources.
Looking ahead, healthcare expenditure on home-based long-term care in Europe is likely to continue rising. Factors such as demographic changes, increased life expectancy, and rising demand for sustainable healthcare solutions will drive this trend. Policymakers need to monitor shifts in expenditure patterns to ensure effective allocation and improved long-term care quality across the continent.
