Trends in spending

Health spending source by GDP per person, 2014

• Health spending tends to increase expo-nentially with economic development.

There are large disparities in the financial resources for health available around the globe

Projection

Health spending is projected to rise between now and 2040, but that increase, in absolute terms, is predicted to be slow in low- and lower-middle income countries. The wide gap between spending in higher-income and lower-income countries is expected to remain.

High-income countries tend to finance health care using government spending and prepaid private insurance schemes.

At low levels of economic development, countries tend to rely on DAH and out-of-pocket financing for health, but DAH drops off quickly as countries develop.

As countries develop, they replace DAH with domestic spending, but when governments lack the capacity to increase health spending, much is left to be financed out-of-pocket.

Out-of-pocket spendingis a large portion of health spending at both low and middle development levels, and can deter access to health care, leading to catastrophic health expenditures.

Over the past 20 years, the difference in health spending per person in high-income countries and other countries has been immense.

DAH by health focus area, 1990–2016

Total DAH, 2000–2016, observed versus potentialDAH by source of funding, 2016

HIV/AIDS remains an epidemic, but DAH for HIV/AIDS has declined by $100 million per year since 2010. With access to treatment, HIV/AIDS is a chronic condition requiring ongoing management.

If the 11.4% growth rate in DAH from 2000 to 2010 had continued from 2010 and 2016, an additional $82 billion would have been devoted to improving health, over the last six years.

The US gave 33.9% of total DAH, and the UK gave 10.9%.

Continued improvements in maternal, newborn, and child health may depend on increased funding in those areas.†

Since 2010, DAH has only grown by 1.8% per year.

*2015 and 2016 are preliminary estimates.†The majority of countries did not reach their goals for MDGs 4 and 5 (reducing child and maternal mortality).

Note: Health assistance for which we have no health focus area information is designated as “unidentified.” “Other” captures DAH for which we have project-level information but which is not identified as funding any of the health focus areas tracked.

*2015 and 2016 are preliminary estimates.Note: Continued growth scenario for DAH is modeled from 2011 to 2016, as based on the average annual percent increase from 2000 to 2010. The difference between DAH disbursed and DAH with continued growth is captured by the white boxes and the funding levels reported therein.

Note: 2016 estimates are preliminary. DAH includes both financial and in-kind contributions for activities aimed at improving health in low- and middle-income countries.
