Analysis# Haiti Healthcare Spending
Haiti allocated 3.192% of its GDP to healthcare in 2023, marking an all-time low for the 24-year dataset. This represents a dramatic 20% decline since 2000 and a sharp drop from the peak of 5.912% in 2011. The current spending level reflects Haiti's constrained fiscal capacity and competing budget priorities amid ongoing economic challenges.
A critical turning point occurred between 2015 and 2017, when healthcare spending fell from 5.075% to 3.82% of GDP—a steep 24% contraction in just two years. Since 2017, spending has remained relatively flat, hovering between 3.2% and 3.9%. The consistent downward trajectory from 2014 onward suggests sustained pressure on Haiti's healthcare budget, with no clear indication of recovery in the near term.
