About this Dataset
Turkey recorded 2,395.0 USD PPP per capita in current health expenditure in 2025, an OECD preliminary estimate down -84.3 from 2024's finalized figure of 2,479.3. Spending has grown in most years since 1999, when the series started at 369.1 USD PPP, with the steepest jump, +448.7, coming in 2023 — likely reflecting the effect of high domestic inflation on nominal figures ahead of PPP conversion.
Government and compulsory insurance schemes typically fund around three-quarters of this spending: in 2024 they covered about 74.5% of the total (1,848.0 USD PPP per capita), with voluntary insurance and household out-of-pocket payments making up the remaining 25.5% (631.3 USD PPP). That split has stayed fairly consistent across the observed years.
Compared with the OECD average, which is typically cited around 4,500 USD PPP per capita, Turkey's 2,479.3 USD PPP in 2024 is likely close to half that level. It runs modestly above Mexico (1,653.4 USD PPP in 2024), a fellow OECD member with a broadly comparable income profile.
