Contribution of federal health expenditure accounts to prevention reporting: possible approaches

Abstract

The health economic national accounts of federal states working group provides data on the annual health expenditure of federal states, health care sector employee figures as well as on gross value added and health economy personnel. Based on these results, federal health reporting can provide data for various indicators (health sector personnel, expenditure and funding). Today health expenditure accounts data and/or additional data sources provide a basis to determine expenditure on disease prevention and health protection for each federal state. These results are highly relevant to the field of prevention reporting.
