European healthcare expenditure on general outpatient curative care highlights significant disparities among countries in 2023. Denmark leads with €1.53 thousand per capita, followed by Liechtenstein (€1.39) and Switzerland (€0.845). Notably, Latvia saw the highest year-on-year increase at 60.73%, while Luxembourg experienced a 3.81% decline. Other noteworthy increases include Slovenia (16.05%), Malta (10.01%), and Spain (4.92%). In contrast, Norway and Belgium saw minor decreases. Over the past five years, expenditure grew significantly in emerging economies like Lithuania and the Czech Republic, suggesting a positive trend towards improving outpatient care.
Future trends to watch include increased expenditure in lower-spending countries, advancements in digital health, and the impact of economic factors on healthcare budgets. Policymakers should focus on reducing disparities and enhancing access to quality care across Europe.
