The out-of-pocket health expenditures in Sweden as a percentage of GDP have been stable, with a consistent value of 1.57% forecasted annually from 2024 to 2028. This stability indicates no year-on-year variation over the forecasted period. For context, it is important to note that these expenditures stood at the same 1.57% of GDP in 2023 as well.

Variations over the last two years did not show any significant change, as the values remain constant. Similarly, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the past five years is effectively zero, reflecting a period of little to no change.

Future trends to watch for:

Changes in healthcare policy or funding adjustments which could alter out-of-pocket expenditures.
Influence of demographic shifts, such as aging population, on healthcare cost structures.
Economic factors that may impact overall GDP, influencing the relative percentage of health expenditures.
