Abstract:
The healthcare expenditure indicators measure a nation's overall healthcare financing situation. The health care expenditure reveals not only financing trends but also policy intervention adopted by a particular system. The healthcare expenditure indicators distinguished between public spending and private spending to make a clear picture of the healthcare spending pattern. This paper examines the pattern of health expenditure indicators in India from 2000-01 to 2006- 07. This paper also attempts to reveal state wise position among health expenditure indicators in India. The secondary data from the World Bank and the National Health Profile has been employed for tabular calculation of indicator value. The results show that there is a declining trend in government healthcare expenditure as compared to total expenditure. The per capita expenditure on health care is minimal, but it has increased over the years. The study found that the states with lower state gross domestic production (GDPs) experienced higher expenditures than the state of Haryana.
