An increasing number of private health providers are reaching the critical size and are becoming potential acquisition targets. Meanwhile, labour shortage and higher labour costs, as well as a series of price hikes, pose a challenge to market players among increasing competition. But how do Hungarian processes align with regional and European trends? The biggest players in the local and regional markets will paint a precise picture on the above topics.
We could spend all the money in the world on healthcare, but even then the question remains: who will pay for it? The private healthcare spending of Hungarian households is outstanding in international comparison. Is this all right? How do others do it? How should financing challenges be met and what role should the state play? What incentives could the government provide in order to channel private funds to official routes? We will also present unconventional health insurance profiles as we look at who benefits from health insurance.
