Singapore will spend $44b for healthcare in less than two decades.

This chart from DBS shows that Singapore's total healthcare expenditure is expected to triple to $44 billion by 2030 on back of the city-state’s rapidly ageing population.

 

Total healthcare spending is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.9%. Healthcare expenditure as a percentage of GDP is expected to increase to 7.3% in 2030, from 4.6% in 2013.

At the same time, personal healthcare spending would jump to $28 billion from $11 billion in 2013. Private spending will make up 64% of total healthcare expenditure, implying potential growth in private healthcare.
