Important Elements of the Europe’s Health Insurance Market
The rising prevalence of health problems such as infectious diseases, chronic diseases, and lifestyle-related diseases has resulted in a significant rise in the number of people suffering from these conditions and in need of effective care. As a result, the rate of hospitalization and the cost of patient care has risen, which has resulted in the rise in demand for health insurance coverage so that patients can receive treatment without restrictions. Moreover, both public and private sector employers are required to offer health care benefits and coverages to their workers, which has also led to the growth of the market.
Furthermore, the introduction of various innovations in the healthcare industry, such as robotic-assisted surgeries and minimally invasive surgeries, is expected to generate lucrative opportunities for market growth through 2026. Heavy competition from new players and low-profit margins, on the other hand, could stifle market growth through 2026. Furthermore, stricter regulations and a longer period of claim reimbursement could limit market development.
The European government provides subsidies to citizens who cannot afford health insurance policies. Besides, countries like the United Kingdom and Switzerland provide their citizens with a European health insurance card which is issued free of cost and allows the card bearer to avail healthcare facilities & treatment in other European states or countries at an affordable or no cost at all. All these factors are anticipated to create lucrative opportunities for market growth through 2026. Furthermore, with the sudden outbreak and spread of the pandemic COVID-19 across the globe, with countries badly affected like Italy and Spain, health insurance providers have now started providing coverage for novel coronavirus disease also, thereby propelling the market growth.
