Overview
Türkiye's health expenditure per capita stood at $555 in 2025, a rise of +$7 from 2023. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach $555 by 2025. Türkiye ranked 91st globally.
Türkiye’s health expenditure per capita has risen from 192.83 in 2000 to 555.15 in 2025, placing the country 91st globally and positioning it between Dominican Republic’s 571.94 and Dominica’s 552.34. The upward trajectory peaked in 2008 at 561.74 before a modest decline, while the lowest point occurred in 2001 at 148.86, reflecting the volatility of early‑2000s fiscal adjustments. Over the 25‑year coverage period, the average annual growth rate has been modest but steady, driven by expanding public health programs and increased private spending. Compared with regional peers such as South Africa, which recorded 573.49, Türkiye’s spending remains slightly lower, suggesting room for further investment to match broader international benchmarks. If the government sustains current health reforms and expands insurance coverage, the per‑capita expenditure is likely to continue its gradual ascent, potentially narrowing the gap with higher‑spending peers in the coming decade.
