Beyond National Health Expenditure Data: Three Things I Wish Were Better Measured
Health Affairs December 19, 2024
Each year Health Affairs publishes retrospective National Health Expenditure (NHE) data from the National Health Expenditure Accounts (NHEA) team at the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). These articles—along with separate CMS articles projecting health care spending over the next decade—are generally among the most read and cited articles of the year. They provide a wide range of stakeholders the most comprehensive national estimates of the fiscal footprint that the health care system leaves on the American economy. The data capture not only what is spent on health care but also the net cost of health insurance, the cost of administering government programs, medical sector purchases of structures and equipment, spending on non-commercial research, and government public health expenditures.
