Key figures

What the numbers say

In 2024, Slovenia's out-of-pocket expenditure per capita, PPP (current international $) rose 23.93 on 2023 (from 613.22 to 637.15).

This year's change was 0.3 standard deviations above that average, so it was an ordinary year: it sits within the range of normal year-to-year movement.

On record, the biggest yearly rise was 71.21 in 2020 and the biggest yearly fall was 4.76 in 2015. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.

From 2015 to 2024 the straight-line trend is upward, about 38.59 a year. A straight line explains 96% of the movement over 10 observed years.
