Cambodia's health expenditure per capita has exhibited a notable upward trend over the past quarter century, with the country's spending on healthcare increasing from $19.28 in 2000 to $115.47 in 2025. The all-time peak of $137.39 in 2021, although surpassed by a slight decline in 2025, underscores the substantial growth in healthcare expenditure in recent years. Notably, Cambodia's health expenditure per capita has surpassed that of peer countries such as the Kyrgyz Republic, which stands at $114.93, and is comparable to Mauritania's $118.21. This growth is likely a response to the country's increasing economic prosperity and improved access to healthcare services. However, the trajectory of health expenditure per capita in Cambodia may be impacted by the country's ongoing economic development and potential shifts in government priorities, particularly in light of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and its aftermath, which could influence the trajectory of healthcare spending in the future.
