How will population ageing affect health expenditure trends in Viet Nam?
The economics of healthy and active ageing series: new evidence for the Western Pacific Region

Overview
This report was developed by the European Observatory on Health Systems and Policies, in collaboration with the WHO Centre for Health Development (WHO Kobe Centre) and the WHO Regional Office for the Western Pacific (WPRO).
In this note we assess the role of population ageing as a determinant of future health expenditure growth in Viet Nam. We also consider how ageing in better or worse health will impact these projections.
