The share of practicing physicians aged 45-54 in France is forecasted to decline gradually from 2024 to 2028. In 2023, this share stood at 18.47% of total physicians. Each subsequent year shows a slight decrease in the share, highlighting a trend towards a potentially aging physician workforce or possibly a change in the demographic entering the workforce. The year-on-year variation over the last two years demonstrates a consistent decline, and the five-year CAGR indicates a steady reduction per year, suggesting a persistent trend in this age group's share.

Future trends to watch for:

The aging of the younger cohorts may change the overall age distribution of physicians.
Policies or incentives to retain mid-career physicians might alter future forecasts.
Potential influx of younger physicians entering the workforce could potentially stabilize or reverse this trend.
