Between 2018 and 2020, the share of GDP invested in public healthcare by the Italian government increased considerably, to then decrease again. This statistic shows the public expenditure on healthcare as a share of GDP in Italy from 2018 to 2027. According to the data, 2020 was the year when public health expenditure took the largest share of the Italian GDP. When the COVID-19 pandemic hit, more public funds were employed on the healthcare system by the government to fight the virus. The share of GDP allocated to healthcare returned to pre-pandemic levels in 2023, and it is expected to remain quite stable.
