European Healthcare Expenditure on Residential Long-Term Care Facilities by Government Schemes Share by Country (Million Euros)

In 2023, the United Kingdom led European healthcare expenditure on residential long-term care facilities by government schemes, with a slight increase of 0.73% from the previous year. Noteworthy growth was observed in countries like the Czech Republic (10.5%), Netherlands (15.35%), and Malta (14.64%). Conversely, countries such as Belgium and Greece experienced declines. Over a five-year horizon, expenditure has seen varied annual growth, with some nations registering steady increases while others faced declines.

Future trends to watch include:

• The potential for increased investment and focus on long-term care facilities due to an aging population across Europe.
• Policy changes and government priorities regarding healthcare and eldercare funding could significantly impact these expenditures.
• Technological advancements in healthcare could drive efficiencies and influence budget allocations.
