European Healthcare Expenditure on Residential Long-Term Care Facilities by All Financing Schemes by Country

In 2023, Germany led European healthcare expenditure on residential long-term care facilities, with €46.56 billion. France and the United Kingdom followed with €37.23 billion and €29.73 billion, respectively. Notable shifts include significant growth in Lithuania (11.39%) and the Czech Republic (10.69%) year-on-year Y-O-Y, indicating rapid investment or increasing needs. Recurring rises in expenditures suggest expanding elderly populations or inflationary pressures across countries. Conversely, countries like Belgium and Bosnia and Herzegovina showed declines, hinting at reduced investments or reforms. The five-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) reveals diverse regional investment strategies in long-term care.

Future trends to watch include the increasing role of technology in care delivery, demographic changes influencing care demand, evolving policies catering to sustainability, public-private partnerships enhancing care quality, and potential economic impacts affecting funding allocation. Monitoring these aspects will be crucial in understanding expenditure trajectory in this sector.
