Health Expenditure and Financing

Description of statistics

Each year, the National Institute for Health and Welfare compiles data on public and private health care expenditure and financing according to the concepts and classifications of the System of Health Accounts (SHA), a statistical framework maintained by the OECD. The data for the ‘Health Expenditure and Financing’ report are compiled from statistics, annual reports, financial statements and similar sources.

The data are updated in March each year.
