The curative care occupancy rate in France is forecasted to experience a slight year-on-year decrease each year from 2024 to 2028. Starting from an already declining trend, in 2023 this rate was higher than the forecasted 71.7% in 2024. The projected figures show a continuous decline, reflecting an annual average decrease over the next five years.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Potential shifts in healthcare delivery that might affect occupancy rates, such as the rise of outpatient care and telemedicine.
- Policy changes impacting hospital resource management and bed allocation.
- Demographic shifts and emerging healthcare needs influencing demand for curative care services.
