Tóm tắt :

36 p. In the last 15 years, numerous countries in the WHO European Region have increased their priority for health within their governmental budgets. Nonetheless, some policy-makers may believe that the health system already receives an adequate share of fiscal resources, especially considering the significant surge in health expenditures prompted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Even before the pandemic, various factors, including price growth within the health system, demographic shifts and climate-related issues, among others, have increased pressure on health care budgets and will continue to do so in the future.Thus, countries are at a crucial moment to adapt and transform their systems and services to meet their objectives in light of these challenges. This naturally leads to questions around how to finance this, and what the appropriate level and distribution of health spending is in countries. This policy brief presents evidence on government health spending levels and trends in the WHO European Region and highlights what has been achieved with this; raises priority areas towards which countries can consider directing existing resources; and explores how health stakeholders can argue their cases for more public funds for health.
