Egypt Healthcare Insurance Market Executive Summary

Egypt's healthcare insurance market is projected to grow from $5.67 Bn in 2022 to $11.39 Bn by 2030, registering a CAGR of 9.1% during the forecast period of 2022-30. In 2019, the healthcare expenditure in Egypt was 4.74% of the GDP or $150 per person. In accordance with the UN's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the Egyptian government has made improvements to healthcare and population health a primary goal.

All Egyptians have access to a publicly funded healthcare system that offers essential medical treatments. The level of care provided, however, varies greatly depending on the area and type of facility. As a result, a lot of Egyptians decide to supplement their government-provided healthcare by buying private health insurance.

Several domestic and foreign insurance companies provide private health insurance in Egypt. A variety of medical costs, including hospitalisation, outpatient care, prescription medications, and diagnostic tests, may be covered by these policies. Also, certain insurance plans could provide extra benefits like vision and dental coverage. In Egypt, employers may also include health insurance in their list of perks for staff members. In this situation, the company normally pays a portion of the premium, with the employee being responsible for the remaining amount.
