Analysis# Algeria Healthcare Spending
Algeria allocated 4.351% of its GDP to healthcare in 2023, representing a significant pullback from its all-time peak of 6.334% in 2015. Since 2000, healthcare spending has grown 35.3% overall, though the trajectory reveals considerable volatility. The current level still exceeds the 2005 low of 3.119%, indicating sustained investment above historical minimums.
A sharp decline marked 2021–2022, when spending dropped from 5.022% to 3.635%, the lowest point in the 23-year period.
