Claim: The share of public health expenditure to GDP of the country was doubled from a mere 0.13% in 2000-01 to 0.26% in 2010-11 respectively. For the year 2012-13, the Budget for healthcare was earmarked at a whopping Rs. 24,261 crore. (Indian National Congress, 2018-05-18)
Evidence (2024-01-01): Preliminary estimates for 2020 for a number of OECD countries all point to a significant increase in the ratio of health spending to GDP. This reflects both the extra health spending needed to combat COVID-19 and reductions in GDP caused by restrictions on economic activity. Based on the initial data, the average share of GDP allocated to health is estimated to have jumped from 8.8% in 2019 to 9.7% in 2020. Those countries most severely affected by the pandemic reported unprecedented increases in the share of GDP allocated to health. The United Kingdom estimated an increase from 10.2% in 2019 to 12.8% in 2020, while Slovenia anticipated its share of spending on health rising from 8.5% to more than 10%. [...] The trends in health spending and GDP over this period have translated into a distinct pattern, with significant jumps in the ratio in 2009 and 2020, and a period of stability in between (Figure 7.3). Focusing on a few countries, Italy and the United Kingdom closely followed this trend, with the latter showing an even more pronounced jump in 2020. Germany and Portugal experienced a smoother transition, with health spending in Portugal estimated to be only 0.4 percentage points higher than in 2005. Despite the shocks, health spending in Korea has shown a steady increase year on year, rising from 4.8% to 8.4% over the 15-year period.

Evidence (2021-11-09): The amount spent on health care compared to the size of the overall economy varies over time owing to differences in both the growth of health spending and overall economic growth. During the 1990s and early 2000s, OECD countries generally saw health spending outpace the rest of the economy, leading to an almost continual rise in the ratio of health expenditure to gross domestic product (GDP). After the volatility of the 2008 economic crisis, the share remained relatively stable, as growth in health spending broadly matched overall economic performance across OECD countries. However, with the COVID‑19 crisis severely restricting economic activity, and health spending tending to increase, the ratio of health expenditure to GDP is set to experience significant adjustment.

Evidence (2023-11-07): The resources that a country allocates to healthcare compared to the size of the overall economy vary over time due to differences in both the growth of health spending and overall economic growth. During the 1990s and 2000s, OECD countries generally saw health spending outpace the rest of the economy, leading to an almost continual rise in the health expenditure to GDP ratio. After the volatility of the 2008 economic and financial crisis, the share remained relatively stable, as growth in health spending broadly matched overall economic performance across the OECD. The arrival of the COVID‑19 pandemic in 2020 with a severe slowdown in economic activity and rapidly increasing health spending led to a significant adjustment in the health expenditure to GDP ratio.

Evidence (2022-12-08): Global spending on health: rising to the pandemic’s challenges The results of the report clearly show that in 2020, a year dominated by the emergence of COVID-19 and its associated health and economic crises, governments around the world rose to the challenge. Sharp increases in government spending on health at all country income levels underpinned the rise in health spending to a new high of US $9 trillion (approximately 11% of global GDP). Government health spending generally increased and offset declines in out-of-pocket spending. Importantly, the rise in government health spending was part of a much broader fiscal response to the pandemic. In high income and upper-middle income countries social protection spending also increased sharply in as governments attempted to cushion populations from the economic impacts of COVID-19. In contrast to health and social protection, growth in education spending was relatively subdued. Countries face the further challenge of sustaining increased public spending on health and other social sectors in the face of deteriorating macroeconomic conditions and rising debt servicing. This also includes the challenge of sustaining external support for low income countries, which is essential for reducing ensuring poverty, ensuring access to health services and strengthening pandemic preparedness.

Evidence (2022-12-09): The Global Health Expenditure Database (GHED) provides comparable data on health expenditure for more than 190 WHO Member States since 2000 with open access to the public.

The database can help answer questions such as how much countries spend on health, how much of the health spending comes from government, households, and donors, and how much of the spending is channelled through compulsory and voluntary health financing arrangements. The database also includes a detailed breakdown of spending for an increasing number of countries on health care functions and primary health care, spending by diseases and conditions, spending for the under 5-year-old population, and spending by provider type.
