Set out in the table below is the health expenditure by the Health Service Executive 2017 to June 2020. by funding source. Between 2017 and 2020 the level of funding provided by the exchequer increased approximate €2.7bn or 20%.
My Department does not have data in relation to private insurance expenditure on health and social care services outside of the public system. Nor do we have information of the level of out of pocket payments made by citizens in relation to their receipt of health and social care services.
This information is collected by the Central Statistics Office.
