About this ranking

Annual household final consumption expenditure on medicines, health products and health services, COICOP 2018 division 06. Excludes health services financed through government social transfers in kind. Published in millions of euros at current prices.

Eurostat national accounts, domestic concept: includes non-residents spending in the territory and excludes residents spending abroad. Includes non-cash items such as imputed rent. Current prices in euros, including for non-euro countries: changes reflect prices and may reflect exchange rates. Not inflation-adjusted or purchasing-power-adjusted.

Every value in the ranking comes from the same publisher and the same period, so the EU countries are compared on one definition. Equal values share a rank.
