Health and welfare expenditure; key figures
Description
This table provides data on spending on care in actual prices, presenting spending on groups of providers according to three approaches:
1. Health and welfare expenditure, which includes all activities in the field of care, including welfare and childcare, regardless of whether these activities take place as a main or as a secondary activity.
2. Health expenditures following the international definition of the System of Health Accounts. In doing so, all activities are divided into a part that is seen as health care, and a part that falls outside and includes, for example, social care.
3. Health care expenses paid for by compulsory insurance. This is the part of the healthcare expenditure under 1) that is paid through the Healthcare Insurance Act (until 2005 by the Sickness Insurance Fund), and the long-term care insurance, the Long-term Care Act (Wlz) (until 2014 the General Exceptional Medical Expenses Act (AWBZ)). The obligation consists of the mandatory participation. This approach indicates how big the difference is with the healthcare expenditure for which the Minister of Health, Welfare and Sport is responsible, the Budgetary Framework for Care (BKZ). With effect from the 2019 budget, the term 'Budgetair Kader Zorg' (Budgetary Framework for Care) has been replaced by 'Expenditure ceiling for care' (UPZ).
