Current health expenditure per capita SH.XPD.CHEX.PC.CD
Haiti's health expenditure per capita was $58 in 2025, ranked 170th globally. This represents a 6.1% increase from 2024. Data from World Bank, covering 2000–2025.
Overview
Haiti's health expenditure per capita stood at $58 in 2025, a rise of +$3 from 2023. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach $58 by 2025. Haiti ranked 170th globally.
Haiti’s health expenditure per capita has risen from 30.36 in 2000 to 57.72 in 2025, placing the nation at 170th in the world ranking. The upward trajectory peaked in 2011 at 77.12 before retreating to a low of 18.61 in 2003, illustrating the volatility that has characterized the past quarter‑century of fiscal health spending. Compared with peers of similar rank, Haiti’s 2025 figure is marginally below Bangladesh’s 61.80 and just above Chad’s 53.37, while Mozambique records a slightly higher 58.80. The modest but steady increase reflects incremental budgetary allocations amid persistent challenges such as limited fiscal space, recurring natural disasters, and constrained health infrastructure. Continued improvements will likely depend on sustained external assistance, reforms to broaden domestic revenue, and investments in primary care that can translate higher per‑capita spending into broader health outcomes. If these conditions are met, the upward trend is expected to persist, narrowing the gap with regional counterparts.
